Today's matchup is between the Kansas City Royals (14-17) and the Cleveland Indians (25-15). The Royals have won 1 of their last 8 games and the Indians have won 4 of their last 5 games. (Not including their current matchup on 9-7-20)
For the Royals, Jakob Junis will take the mound who is 0-1 this season pitching a 4.32 ERA, a 5.43 FIP, a .342 wOBA, a 89.6 mph average exit veloicty, and a 1.44 whip on 16.2 innings pitched.
For the Indians, Tristan McKenzie will take the mound who is 2-0 this season pitching a 1.69 ERA, a 3.15 FIP, a .220 wOBA, a 88.5 mph average exit veloicty, and a 0.75 whip on 16 innings pitched.
On the hitting side the Royals have a .298 wOBA, a .303 OBP, and 45 home runs. The Indians have a .301 wOBA, a .322 OBP, and 40 home runs.
I have to stick with the Indians here, Tristan McKenzie is a stud on the mound and I think they will be able to get the job done batting against the likes of Jakob Junis.
