Brad Keller Blasted By Athletics

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Brad Keller wasn't the only Royals pitcher to get destroyed by Oakland on Monday, but he was the first.

Brad Keller To Make 2-3 More Starts

Kansas City Royals manager Ned Yost said that starting pitcher Brad Keller will likely only make two to three more starts this year. The Royals want to shut him down at 180 innings. Keller is already at 164 innings, so the Royals will keep his pitch count low in his last several outings, severely limiting […]

Adalberto Mondesi Likely To Be Activated Sunday

Kansas City Royals shortstop Adalberto Mondesi (shoulder) is likely to be activated from the injured list when rosters expand on Sunday. Manager Ned Yost said the team doesn't want Mondesi diving for balls or diving into the bases for the rest of the season. The 24-year-old phenom has been out since July 16, so fantasy […]

Danny Duffy To Rejoin Team Later This Week

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Danny Duffy (hamstring) is done with his rehab assignment and will be activated from the injured list to start on Friday or Saturday against the Orioles.

H2H Category Streamers - Week 22 Waiver Wire

There are plenty of strategies that fantasy managers explore in hopes of getting an advantage over their opponent. Heavy lineup, heavy starting pitchers, no catcher, all (or mostly) reliever staff, no reliever staff, etc. Even if you play a balanced lineup, injuries can cause holes. A few weeks without a key player won’t kill a […]

Jakob Junis Labors Through Loss

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Jakob Junis struggled against the Indians on Friday, throwing 94 pitches in just four innings. Junis was tagged for four earned runs and took the loss after KC only scored one. Junis allowed six hits and two walks in the short outing, but he also struck out four. That gives […]

Kyle Zimmer Only Going From The Stretch

Kansas City Royals pitcher Kyle Zimmer has decided to embrace his conversion to the bullpen by ditching the wind-up. It's a move that is fairly common amongst short relievers, but it seemed like every member of the Royals organization has held their breath and hoped for a magical turnaround with the oft-injured pitcher. Zimmer has […]

Hunter Dozier Triples In Loss

Kansas City Royals corner infielder Hunter Dozier was the lone member of the team to knock in a run on Friday when he smacked a triple to right to bring in Nicky Lopez in the sixth inning. Dozier has heated up again following a mid-summer lull, hitting safely in 13 of his last 15 games. […]

Eric Skoglund To Start Sunday

Kansas City Royals manager Ned Yost said that pitcher Eric Skoglund will make the start on Sunday against the Indians. Skoglund has yet to pitch in the big leagues in 2019 and was 1-6 with a 5.14 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and meager 6.3 K/9 in 70 innings (13 starts, one relief outing) last season. The […]

Danny Duffy To Make Rehab Start Sunday

Kansas City Royals manager Ned Yost said that starting pitcher Danny Duffy (hamstring) will make a rehab start for Double-A Northwest Arkansas on Sunday. Duffy should be able to return to the rotation before season's end, but he's unlikely to help fantasy owners much. The left-hander has had another rough season for the rebuilding Royals, […]

MLB DFS Prop Picks for 8/23/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

One of the interesting aspects of the ups and downs that come with a long Major League Baseball season is that production tends to fluctuate.
