The conservators of Cleveland take on the royalty of Kansas City this afternoon at Kauffman Stadium in the final 2023 matchup of this division rivalry. Cleveland has long since secured the season series, but Kansas City has a shot at a series sweep today after taking the first two. They’re in the midst of their second hottest stretch of the season, taking wins in six of their last seven games. A win today would give the Royals their third sweep of the season.
Zack Greinke will toe the mound for Kansas City. Though the command is still elite, Greinke simply isn’t fooling batters anymore with his diminished stuff, producing the worst season of his career.
