Royals vs. Orioles MLB Pick – August 19th
The Kansas City Royals had a chance to defeat at the New York Mets but let things to break free on Sunday afternoon. Going to the 7th inning with a 4-3 lead, the Mets poured it around with 6 runs to proceed comfortably by a score of 9-4. Sunday afternoon, theyd ultimately go on to get a 11-5 victory. What seemed like will be a close one turned into a blowout.
When the Mets bats are moving just down like that down the stretch, then you might want to pen them. The offense is their question mark, that has been an inconsistent unit for them from 2019. Pitching wise, its difficult to bet from the spinning that they have to throw at hitters.
The Royals proceed for a series against the Orioles having a trip to Baltimore. Meaningless in the sense that this game doesnt have any effect on the postseason. Together with the Royals and Orioles getting a peek at a number of their younger talent, it is essentially a glorified spring training game. They are already scouting for a 2020 lineup. Do not expect too much progress from side next season, though.
Since the newcomer will be receiving his look tonight baltimore are getting a good look at John Means. He pitched in 3.1 innings to receive a taste of major league action every day. This season the Orioles have given Means an chance as a beginner.
Overall, hes been decent for a rookie, but we have been seeing him fight. Well see what he could perform in home at Baltimore against the Royals tonight. The Royals will seem to Jorge Lopez, who has defended his previous high of seven starts in one year.
Lopez is going to be expected to make 12th start and his appearance in 2019 tonight. Lopez is a human body that the Royals could throw out there in this season, although he has not been great. Head below to our complimentary Royals vs. Orioles select.

John Means is trying to keep it together down the stretch. Means has just discovered that beating league hitting isnt going to be easy all the time, although he pitched so particularly for a rookie. This is a marathon for a lot of young pitchers that arent used to pitching this much contrary to the top hitters on the planet. Means was throttled.
So, he wont have to face a lineup as good as the Yankees here, however, his confidence has been shaken for them. Means allowed 10 earned runs in 7.1 innings of play, with all the Yanks winning by dozens of 14-2 and 8-3. He was also struggling against the Diamondbacks.
Means afforded 6 hits and 3 earned runs in 3.1 innings. He hasnt made it past 3 innings since July 19th against the Red Sox. This will be his first look in the Royals in his career. Means should be receiving lots of run support against Jorge Lopez tonight, so that he may not need a stellar performance for a Baltimore triumph. We all know that he probably is not going to find much help from the bullpen, who are dead last in the majors with a 6.08 ERA. Lopez will be hunting his second win of the year tonight.
Lopez has had chances to stay in a rotation since 2015, however, was never able to get the work finished. As he seems like a guy who belongs in the minors nothing has changed for him in 2019. Lopez enters Monday with a 6.51 ERA and 1.55 WHIP. He has been punished for a 15.75 ERA, 2.62 WHIP, along with .511 OBA in his last few starts.
Lopez has spent most of his time at the bullpen this year and has been encouraged to start against the Tigers. He was missing as he was exposed to 4 earned runs in 1.1 innings. Baltimore are hitting .429 using a .500 OBP in seven at-bats against Lopez. The 26-year-old likely isnt likely to suddenly figure it out at Baltimore tonight. This looks like a nice spot to get the OVER ticket.
