    I don't have a lot of confidence in Sipp and Fields anymore. Also Harris is starting to slip.

    The problem that starter is lefty, and he is better hitting left handed, but he will work the count and get a walk.

    Now, just saw the lineup, and i think is going like this

    1. Altuve 2b
    2. Gonzalez 3b
    3. Correa ss
    4. Gattis dh
    5. Tucker lf
    6. Carter 1b
    7. RAsmus rf
    8. Conger c
    9. Marisnick

    I dont remember if it was Carter 5th or 6th, but if Carter hits in the 5th spot then we have 2 lefties hitting back to back, eventough Tucker hits lefties

    I think that Sipp has done good. Fields and Harris has struggle a bit lately, lets hope Qualls improve and that one of the 2 gets back to be dominant again.

    I think VV can be very helpful in the bullpen.

    Defense helps a pitcher's WHIP.

    I think the defense has greatly aided his numbers... even more so than other pitchers on the team. He's had 3 HRs robbed already this year, one being a salami. He's a nice 4th or 5th reliever. On this team, he might be 5th or 6th, so even better.

    is it the first inning Feldman usually struggles with? Here's to hoping for a dominant game from him tonight

    Well, at least we're making contact.

    On a side note, I really like the Royals' commentators

    According to the Royals crew, when hitters swing at the 1st pitch from Feldman, they are hitting .450-something.
