Cubs vs. Royals MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Take the Royals on the run line. Ragans has been excellent for Kansas City this season, and I don’t think the Cubs will be able to produce much offensively. The Royals have been swinging the bat well as a team thus far in the second half and they find a way to win this game by 2+ runs on Sunday.
MLB BETTING PREDICTION: Royals -1.5 +115
