Replaced by “Minnesota Homers.” At least for last night.

I think these starters are are all getting tired. They are all over their season highs for innings pitched. Maybe going to a six man rotation would help.

I don’t disagree. But this isn’t unique to the Royals. They either have to go to a six-man rotation or skip a start for some of these guys.

The dog days of Summer are nipping at the Royal's heels. Particularly the pitcher's heels.

If I am not much mistaken, Seth has been got multiple times recently by teams being willing to swing early against him. Probably an adjustment needs to be made there. Which actually encourages me a bit, because that's the sort of adjustment that can be made whereas something like simply not having good pitches usually can't be fixed.
