Brett Phillips, Alcides Escobar Both Out Thursday
6 years agoKansas City Royals outfielder Brett Phillips and infielder Alcides Escobar are both out of the lineup on Thursday. Taking their places are Hunter Dozier at third and Whit Merrifield in the outfield. First baseman Ryan O'Hearn returns to first base with Lucas Duda serving as designated hitter. The Royals will be facing Sam Gaviglio and the Toronto Blue Jays. Gaviglio is coming off back-to-back seven-strikeout starts, so any Royals hitter should be dealt with caution Thursday.
