The Angels were briefly out of the cellar this past week until they ran into the Astros
The Angels only won 1 game out of 7 against the Royals in 2015 but swept them at home back in April of this year. Unfortunately, two of our starting pitchers for that series (Richards & Tropeano) are now on the DL. The Angels sure could use some wins after coming off an embarrassing and soul-crushing sweep at the hands of the Astros.
The Royals are only 6-13 during the month of July, have been floundering, and are now 8 games out of first place in the AL Central.
