I really like the Royals here on Sunday while the starting pitchers are not very exciting we have an excellent advantage and the value is right for us to play the Royals big. First of all Colby Lewis who has given up 21 runs in his last 4 starts alone is going on 4 days rest on the road during a day start. I don't anticipate him being able to go deep into the game when he has a 5.56 ERA on the road, and a 11.70 ERA during day starts in fact Texas is last in the league in ERA during day games and KC is #7 in OPS during day games. I expect the Royals to look to avoid the sweep in their home park and they will send Jeremy Guthrie to the mound who has 6 straight quality starts vs. the Rangers.

Even if both pitchers don't do well we have the Royals superior bullpen ranking #1 in the majors up against the Rangers 26th ranked bullpen and the majority of their pitchers are worse during day games which is a big advantage here for the Royals.
