7 years agoKansas City Royals pitcher Trevor Oaks is expected to be called up in order to start on Wednesday against the Indians in place of Ian Kennedy (oblique). Against a scary Cleveland offense, Oaks won't be a recommended deep streamer, what with his 7.45 ERA and 2.17 WHIP in 9 2/3 innings at the big league level this year. In his lone 2018 start, Oaks went five innings and allowed five earned runs on 12 hits in a loss to the White Sox. While the rookie may see more than one start with Kennedy on the disabled list, we wouldn't recommend picking him up.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
