Kansas City at Los Angeles

Jared Weaver had a huge year last season for the Angels, and the addition of Albert Pujols is going to lengthen and strengthen their lineup. But at just about 2-1 odds in a season opener, it is a bit much. The Royals made a lot of progress last season, as they have a solid lineup and finished the season at 11-5 in their last 16 games, winning the opener in each of their last five series openers, and they have also been 4-1 behind Bruce Chen in series openers as well, and 6-2 when he starts as a dog. The Royals have been at their best vs. right-hand pitching, closing last season at 9-3. The Angels struggle vs. left-hand pitching where they closed last season at just 1-6. Play on Kansas City.
