The Royals are in a scoring slump. But the huge starting pitching advantage and team defense make the Royals a worthy investment.
The price is too low with Danny Duffy going against Dylan Covey. Since moving into the starting rotation last season, Duffy has been one of the better pitchers in the league going 14-3 with a 3.23 ERA. Duffy has been outstanding this season with a 1.32 ERA giving up four runs in four starts.
The White Sox, despite their big offensive showing last night, aren't much better offensively than Kansas City and have a much worse starter going. Covey isn't ready for the big leagues. That's obvious after his first two starts where he's allowed five walks and three homers with only two strikeouts in 10 1/3 innings. Opponents are batting .357 against him. Covery has a 7.84 ERA.
