The Kansas City Royals surprised last year by not only making the playoffs, but going all the way to the World Series. There has been no hangover yet, as the Royals have picked up right where they left off last season. Kansas City has started the season 4-0 as they take on the Los Angeles Angels. They may be in for their toughest game of the season so far in squaring off vs. Jered Weaver. Weaver is 167-103 in his career, good for a +8.3% ROI when playing on him, but at home he has been off the charts. Weaver is 95-38 at home with an ROI of +15.4%, and that climbs to +19.7% if he is not a favorite of -215 or more in the contest. Teams that start the season at 4-0 are bad bets in game five, as their opponent has a +39.6% ROI when facing them. Go with the Angels in this one.
