Royals Rumblings - News for July 8, 2019
Jeffrey Flanagan writes that the Royals were pleased with how Jakob Junis looked in his last start before the break.
Junis changed speeds with his out pitch -- his slider -- perhaps more than he has recently. That gave the slider more dip to the point that Trackman picked it up as a curveball several times.
“Trackman picks it up as a curve once in a while,” Junis said. “I did throw it a little slower sometimes today. I threw some good ones.
