Preview the July 28 matchup between the Atlanta Braves and Kansas City Royals with odds over/under, game spread, betting lines and more.

All-Star Royals pitcher Kris Bubic has been shut down for the remainder of the 2025 Major League Baseball season.

Kansas City (52-54) has scored four runs or more in seven of its last nine games, following a 4-1 win over Cleveland (52-53) at Kauffman Stadium.

Bubic exited Saturday’s start early after 2 and 2/3 innings. He walked four straight batters to start the game.

The Cleveland Guardians were rolling and playing some of their best baseball of the season coming out of the All-Star Break. However, they hit a roadblock in Missouri with a series loss against the Kansas City Royals. The Guardians split Saturday’s doubleheader but lost Sunday’s rubber match in a frustrating fashion.
