## Resource

Michael Wacha’s steady pitching anchors the Royals’ rotation, with a 3.48 ERA and elite company among 500+ inning starters. The conversation turns to the outfield, where John Rave’s improved plate discipline and power could make him a solid fourth outfielder, while Isaac Collins’ inconsistent swing post-All-Star break raises questions about his everyday role. The episode wraps with a preview of the upcoming Red Sox series, spotlighting Seth Lugo, Randy Dobnak, and Noah Cameron as key pitchers in the coming days.
