Kansas City at Oakland

Oakland was right in the midst of looking like a wildcard contender a couple weeks ago as they had run out to a 51-42 mark. Those nine games over .500 have since evaporated into a 2-11 slide. This slide has seen this sputtering offense produce three runs or less in nine of the 13 games. The Royals are youthful and fragile. The losses create more losses and the wins create more wins. This team has endured a 13-game losing streak and a seven-game losing streak already this season, but they have also produced two five-game winning streaks and a six-game winning streak. The Royals have also won three straight seven different times. The Royals are currently in one of those win modes after three straight and the first two in this series. We see value in KC as a dog as they get the sweep here.
