KC has played the role of spoiler nicely this month. They won series against Minnesota and Chicago - two playoff contenders. The Royals have won 11 of 18 overall and they've been decent at home all year long. With the pressure clearly on their opponents' shoulders and not theirs, the Royals are playing decent baseball. At home this season they are scoring 5.4 per game and over their last seven games they are getting 6.3 per game. The Angels are averaging 2.4 runs per game over that same span. Tonight JOrge De La Rosa takes the mound for KC. He, like his team, is playing well lately (2.30 ERA in last three starts). The Angels are just 31-34 this year as a favorite of -100 to -150. I like the Royals in this one.
