1ST 5 INNINGS UNDER 4.5
KC Royal's Lynch gets his first MLB Start tonight. He is a consensus pick as a top-100 prospect. The 24-year-old southpaw has a 2.50 ERA and 157 strikeouts over 147 2/3 innings in the minors, but he has no Double-A or Triple-A experience. GM Moore "Daniel (Lynch) is an extremely talented left-handed pitcher with an elite fastball and an elite breaking ball. He's got the makings of a top of the rotation pitcher." I have been hoping for 9 here as it is skewing that way but it does not appear it is going there. Civale has been super good. Weather cooperating.
