Game 2 is in case you missed betting on Game-1.  The pitchers are late on the TBD… the betting lines are late to come out.  Game 1 is going to play Monday night.  You have to charge on this bet… It is worth it to know the numbers are reliably bad on each side, but slightly better for the Angels.

A battle of the worst we can find in the worst of places.  The Los Angeles Angels are a staggering disappointment in the Al West… The Kansas City Royals are a staggering disappointment in the AL Central… These American League disappointments have been disappointing for over a decade (both of them).  We hate teams like these.  We hate the owners of teams like this.  If you love baseball you hate, hate, hate these teams and owners and their cities.  They stink, they are trash, they are garbage, I can not find the words!!  However… When you bet on baseball you love the accuracy of their terrible numbers… and how there will be little to no surprises,  and how statistically the pitching matchup will really decide the outcome… and how the money will hit your online account very reliably.

The Los Angeles Angels have won 1 of their last 10 games. The Angels stink.  The Angels’ owner stinks and all the rumors among sportswriters is that the Angels players have quit.  They went 0-2 against the Atlanta Braves, 0-2 against the Los Angeles Dodgers, 1-2 against the Houston Astros, and 0-3 against the Baltimore Orioles.  A long streak of players like Ohtani, Trout, and Rendon just waiting to be traded to a contender.  

The Kansas City Royals have won 5 of their last 10 games.  They went 1-1 against the Tampa Bay Rays, 1-3 against the Toronto Blue Jays, 3-1 against the Detroit Tigers.  The Tigers are another very bad team and this Royals’ squad was able to land 3 wins off them… otherwise this stretch of games would have been as tragic as their season.

The Angels are 25th in scoring with 3.91 runs per game, 26th in batting average with .229, and 26th in OBP with .300.

The Royals are 26th in scoring with 3.89 runs per game, 15th in batting average with .245, and 22nd in OBP .308.

Angels pitchers are 18th in ERA with 4.00, 15th in WHIP with 1.25, and 18th in errors with 53 on the season.  

Royals are 27th in ERA with 4.81, 30th in WHIP with 1.48, and 10th in errors with 47 on the season.

Our prediction for Tuesday, July 26th is… Royals 4 - Angels 3

The bet is for the Royals here.  The reason is the moneyline which pays well on either side, but has been more reliable that the Royals get wins against even odds (for the most part).  Also in games that the Padres have hemmed and hawed about the pitcher… they have usually lost.
