Key Stats
Kansas City Royals
Brady Singer will take the bump for the Royals in today’s game. Singer has started the season 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA and struck out ten batters. Bobby Witt Jr. leads the team with a .429 batting average, an OBP of .500, and 12 hits. Maikel Garcia has hit three home runs, while Salvador Perez has collected eight RBIs.
Chicago White Sox
The White Sox are expected to start Erick Fedde for today’s game. Fedde has started the season 0-0 with a 3.86 ERA and seven strikeouts. Yoan Moncada leads the team with a .273 batting average, an OBP of .360, and six hits. Luis Robert Jr. has tallied four RBIs, while Paul DeJong has hit two home runs.
Game Prediction
The Chicago White Sox have been atrocious this year, and I don’t see that changing in this one. Brady Singer will make things difficult on this Chicago offense, and don’t be surprised to see him go six or seven innings. While Fedde was decent in his last outing, this Royals batting lineup has been finding ways to score, and they will do the same thing in this one. Back Kansas City to tally another win and cover the spread. They dominated yesterday, and that’s likely to happen again today.
Final Pick
Kansas City Royals -1.5 (+110)
