(929) Milwaukee Brewers at (930) Kansas City Royals
MIL/KC U9
Both teams, Brewers & Royals, score runs in bunches while putting up crooked numbers within innings. These are not teams that are constantly putting pressure on you as they struggle to be consistent when at the plate. Each of these lineups are hitting .206 & .239 in the last 7 days and are in the middle of the pack regarding runs batted in.
These lineups now face 2 starters who have done a great job in their role within Lugo and Rea. Lugo has been lights out so far this year with plus numbers on all his pitches and can settle into a groove to chew through innings for the Royals. Rea has not been as good as Lugo so far but was subject to a couple of rough outings against BAL & NYY. He can settle down against this lineup and has a rested bullpen behind him if need be.
