Kansas City Royals
The Royals weren’t expected to do much this year and, although they’ve hung around for nearly the first month of the season it appears the bottom is starting to fall out for KC. Tuesday’s 2-5 loss to Tampa Bay was the 5th in a row for Ned Yost’s team.
Without a doubt the Royals biggest problem is their offense. Kansas City ranks 19th overall in scoring which isn’t horrible, but they’ve been held to 3 runs or less in 4 of the last 5.

Jakob Junis shouldn’t expect a whole lot of run support when he takes the hill at Tropicana on Wednesday afternoon. That’s not really a good thing though for the right-hander that 13 ER in his last three starts (15.2 IP).
Tampa Bay Rays
Tampa Bay is finding out that a visit from Kansas City is good for what ails them. After losing 4 in a row including a 3 game sweep by Boston (all at Tampa Bay), the Rays have now outscored KC 11-5 in back-to-back wins boosting their AL East lead to 3 games.
The Rays have hit only .214 vs. Junis, who got the start at Topicana Field last August and held Tampa Bay to 2ER but on 9 hits in 5.2 IP. There’s potential for TB in this one and because Junis has struggled this season so far.

It’s going to be about as raucous of a crowd that you’ll see at the Trop Tuesday as Tampa Bay welcomes back their ace Blake Snell who has missed time with a toe injury. Snell has been absolutely lights out when he has been on the mound, posting a 36-4 K to BB rate so far this year.
