Chris Prince’s Angels vs Royals Prediction, Betting Analysis
Great spot for Witt and the Royals, as they are squaring off with left-hander Mitch Farris, who is coming up from Double-A to start for the Angels.
Witt has racked up 5 multi-hit games over his last 11, and he ranks 2nd in the league in doubles (41).
He also gives us power upside against LHP (.280 ISO over the past month), so we have plenty of routes to cover here against this unproven lefty making his major league debut.
Pick: Bobby Witt Over 1.5 Total Bases (-140, Fanatics)
