4 years agoKansas City Royals outfielder Franchy Cordero is in the team's lineup on Thursday versus Tigers right-hander Ivan Nova. Cordero was traded from the Padres days before Opening Day, and he's yet to settle into his new uniform with a 1-for-11 start this season. He's yet to strikeout, which is a good sign since he's struggled in that area over his career, so it's only a matter of time before we see him dip into that power/speed potential. Cordero has a good opportunity to come alive versus Nova, who has allowed a HR/9 total north of 1.40 for three consecutive seasons.--Riley Mrack - RotoBaller
