Royals vs Dodgers Prediction

May hasn’t been great this season as he continues to work his way back from injury, and he has a 5.94 ERA and .267 allowed batting average in 33.1 road innings. However, the Dodgers are on one of those runs where it doesn’t matter. When the Dodgers are scoring runs by the boatload, they can overcome subpar pitching. The Royals have scored a combined four runs in their last five games. It doesn’t matter how well Cameron has pitched as a rookie if he’s not going to get run support. Give me the Dodgers and the RL for max betting value.
