Anthony Kay has been pulled in the middle of the fifth inning of both starts, but he’s given up only two runs in each of them. Left-handed hitters have yet to register a single hit, and the Royals right-handers have bene struggling big-time so far. Meanwhile, Royals RHP Seth Lugo has given up only two runs though 11.1 IP vs. solid Braves and Brewers lineups, both of which came in the same inning. The bullpens for both sides stink, so we’ll just play the starters.

The White Sox pretended to be decent there for a minute but off being swept three at home vs. Baltimore and also 1-5 away. Anthony Kay starts Thursday on the mound and, well, he's a 31-year-old journeyman for a reason with a career 5.44 ERA. But I'm told he keeps a really nice yard. The always-dependable Seth Lugo has been great for the Royals at 1-0 with a 1.59 ERA in two outings. He held a 2.31 ERA last year in 11.2 innings vs. Chicago. This would be a spot where I'd play -1 if offered, but it may close around -200 so not too bad of value straight up.
