Game Preview
On Monday, The Toronto Blue Jays will face up against the Kansas City Royals in the first game of their three-game series at Kauffman Stadium. The Blue Jays arrive into this series after losing two matches of their three-games against the Minnesota Twins over the weekend. The Kansas City Royals have lost six of their last seven games and their performance reflected their position in the standings, which is the last place of the league. This series will be very important for them in order to bounce back and define if they’ll have a chance for the rest of the season.
The Toronto Blue Jays will send out Ross Stripling as their starting pitcher, making this his 6th appearance and 14th appearance overall. He is currently holding a 1-1 record with a 4.22 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP, over 32 innings pitched. The 32-year-old was last seen on the mound a week ago in the Blue Jays 6-5 win over the Los Angeles Angels, where he retired the lone batter he faced on 3 pitches to secure his first save of the season. Stripling has to face one the worst-performing offenses in the league, making this a great opportunity for him to pick up his 2nd win of the season.
Daniel Lynch will open up the game for the Kansas City Royals, making his 10th start of the season. Lynch is holding a 2-4 record with a 4.81 ERA and a 1.56 over 43 innings pitched. The 25-year-old took the loss Tuesday against the Cleveland Guardians after giving 6 runs on 9 hits and 3 walks, achieving 2 strikeouts over 4 innings. Lynch is looking to bounce back from a not-so-great performance last week, and though going up against a 31-22 Blue Jays is going to be a huge challenge, he might end up being the main factor to determine a Royals win over them.
