Across the 54 games we've tracked, the average bet percentage on Kansas City Royals is 41.5% and the average money percentage is 38.5%.

When Kansas City Royals draw 60%+ of bets, they are 6-6 this season. Public favorites historically underperform; see the methodology page for the season aggregate.
Season-to-date, Kansas City Royals averages 41.5% of bets across their games. Above 55% is a public lean; above 60% qualifies them as a public favorite.
Public favorites still win plenty of games — they are usually the better team. Where the public underperforms is against the spread on big-name teams in nationally televised games.
In our season-to-date sample, the side with more money than bets covers slightly more than half the time. The edge grows with the size of the bet/money gap.
