Nate Robertson has really struggled. The Tigers are just 8-15 on the season in games started by Robertson, and just 5-12 in his last 17 starts. The Tigers looked like they were going to run away with everything early in the season, but things have changed. They are just 14-24 in their last 38 games. Robertson in his last 95 innings has allowed 125 hits and 33 BB's - a total of 158 base runners. It has led to a 5.78 ERA. He has also pitched very poorly on the road, as the Tigers are just 1-7 in his last eight road starts. The Royals will have Brian Bannister on the hill and he has become their ace. Bannister did not record his first win until June 1, but since then the Royals are 11-4 in his starts. The last 12 times he has taken the hill with the Royals scoring more than 1 run, KC has gone 12-0. Bannister's last 100 innings have been as good as anyone in the league, as he has pitched to a 2.86 ERA as he has really matured into an outstanding pitcher. We will ride the Royals to take the opener.
