Jorge Lopez Chased Early By Angels

Though he was spotted a seven-run lead, Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Jorge Lopez struggled and was removed from the game before finishing the fourth inning on Saturday.

Champ or Chump - Hunter Dozier and Christian Walker

Every season seems to have a couple of players emerge from nowhere to post fantasy-relevant lines in April. Most of them fade back into the abyss, but a few of them stick around to produce value for the entire season and beyond. In 2019, Hunter Dozier and Christian Walker are surely among the names who […]

Deeper AL-Only Waiver Wire Sleepers for Week 4

Every week in baseball, a significant player will hit the disabled list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to […]

Jakob Junis Has Hand Contusion

Kansas City Royals starter Jakob Junis was solid in his performance Wednesday afternoon against the Tampa Bay Rays, but exited prematurely. This was due to a line drive that struck Junis on his right hand, with the Royals announcing the injury to be a right hand contusion. The 26-year-old had six strikeouts and one run […]

Kansas City Royals third baseman Hunter Dozier (back) will miss his second straight game on Wednesday against Blake Snell and the Tampa Bay Rays.

Lucas Duda Mired In Slump

Kansas City Royals first baseman/designated hitter Lucas Duda continued to wallow away in his slump on Tuesday as his 0-for-2 effort meant he's only gotten two hits in his last 19 at-bats. His season batting average has sunk to .174, but surprisingly enough, he's remained patient at the plate, walking an astounding 16% of the […]

Ryan O'Hearn Doubles And Triples In Loss

Kansas City Royals first baseman Ryan O'Hearn was one of the team's few bright spots on Tuesday as he doubled and tripled in the Royals loss to the Rays. O'Hearn has had a pretty poor start to the season so far, but it's a mix of good and bad signs. First, O'Hearn's patience has paid […]

Homer Bailey Rocked By Rays

The Kansas City Royals don't employ the opener approach embraced by some other teams, but starting pitcher Homer Bailey didn't escape the second inning anyway on Tuesday. Bailey allowed four earned runs on three hits and four walks in just one-plus inning, taking the loss against Tampa Bay. Everything was out of sorts for Bailey […]
