The Royals have only hit 13 home runs this season and are averaging just 3.2 runs. However, they've managed to maintain their record at 15-15 while they await their offensive revival. Even so, Lorenzen pitched six innings, and the Royals beat the Rays 3-1 in the series opener in Tampa.
The Royals' starting rotation is keeping them afloat while they hope their offense can also support them, but it has suffered a snag because Ragans will miss at least his next start with a groin strain. That's why Royals manager Quatraro will give Noah Cameron, a 25-year-old left-hander with a 1.04 WHIP this year in the minor leagues, his MLB debut.
On the other side, the already well-known Drew Rasmussen will start in his sixth start of 2025. His last one was his worst of all, he couldn't handle the D-backs' ferocious lineup in the desert, but even so, nothing prevented him from once again throwing exactly 5 innings, achieving that or more in each of his starts this season.
