This is a 10* AL TOTAL BOB on the OVER Royals/Angels.

Both teams have been struggling with offensive consistency of late, but we can expect those trends to finally end this evening.

The Royals have seen the total go UNDER in five straight, which is significant to note in this case as KC has seen the total go OVER in eight of its last 11 after playing to five or more straight UNDERS in a row.

The Angels are off three straight vicrories over Seattle, and each contest went UNDER the number. But that's also important to note here today because LA has seen the total go OVER in five of its last six after playing to three or more straight UNDERS in a row.

Neither starter has been fantastic either this season.

Especially the Royals' Kris Bubic (0-4, 8.36 ERA), who has faced the Angels once in his career (last season), allowing six runs over four innings.

The home side counters with Noah Syndergaard (4-5, 3.53), who has been hit or miss from game to game this season.

The situation and the numbers/trends all point to the OVER as the correct call in this one.

Good luck, NP
