00:00We're going out to the K. The Kansas City Royals have now lost seven straight. I made

00:08the error yesterday of jumping and thinking that was the turnaround spot. They're playing

00:11host to the Guardians again in this one. The total opened at eight and a half. We've seen

00:16a bit of movement. It goes back to eight and a half here. Minus 134 for the Kansas City

00:21Royals with Seth Lugo getting out on the hill. Is Seth Lugo towing the slab enough to turn

00:26it around for the Royals? Yeah, it's tough. Again, sometimes you're just getting into

00:30like we talk about the Mets. Sometimes you just start to get a win streak or just start

00:34to get a losing streak. You can't get out of your own way. Seth Lugo started the season

00:38absolutely a man on fire, has settled down quite a bit. His last 60 days dubs ERA getting

00:43close to five at this spot. He really struggles with left-handed batters. The key indicator

00:52Ramirez, Naylor, Manzardo and Naylor as well, which is actually his brother. And then Roccio

00:57has switched here to the nine-hole spot. So if you're struggling over the past 60 days,

01:05to say it.
