Love the Royals today. They have been on fire winning 8 of 9 and the Tigers are resting guys right now. Paulino actually had a quality start vs. the Tigers this year when they were at full strength while Scherzer has a 5.33 ERA away and has given up 11 ER in just 8 innings pitched over his last 2 vs. the Royals and he's facing them at the wrong time as the Royals are on fire right now scoring more than 6 runs per 9 in their last 10 with an overall .340 average in their last 10 games while the Tigers vs. RHP are hitting .241 and 3.48 runs per 9. With Scherzer on the mound they are 3-9 in their last 12 as road fav -110 to -150 and they are 5-12 in their last 17 of his road starts vs. a losing team.
Mark Buehrle has a 2.54 WHIP over his last 3 starts and in his last 3 vs. the Indians he has a 1.74 WHIP and a 7.10 ERA. 6 of the 9 hitters in the Indians line up are a combined 21-59 and there is plenty of talent int he line up to get runs of the south paw. Meanwhile Jiminez has been great at home with a 2.25 ERA and 0.96 WHIP. All of his starts have come on the road vs. the White Sox and the Sox line up today is a combined 10-54 vs. Jimenez in their career. White Sox have struggled out of their bullpen too 6.32 ERA over their last 10 while the Indians are scoring 5.48 runs per 9 in their last 10 games and are 31-15 in their last 46 as a home favorite.
