7 years agoKansas City Royals starting pitcher Jakob Junis faces off against the Chicago White Sox on Thursday. Junis has been impressive so far in 2018 with a 2.03 ERA in his four starts. He has struggled at times for strikeouts this season (20 in 26 2/3 innings) and has never been a huge strikeout pitcher in his career. However, the White Sox are a free-swinging team and Junis could be primed for a big strikeout performance. Pitching at home in Kauffman Stadium should help limit any damage the White Sox could do to him and makes Junis a really useful DFS option Thursday. White Sox slugger Jose Abreu (flu) won't be playing, either.--Ben Rolfe
