Kanas City Royals solidified the back end of the rotation trading for Mike Lorenson from the Texas Rangers for Walter Pennington so let this season a pretty solid year for Lorenz in 101 and 2/3 5- six record 75 k a 3.81 ra a 1.28 whip and a quality start so we know this Royal team this set at the top end of the rotation with Cole Reagan who's having a Good Year Seth Lugo coming out of nowhere with a monster season Michael Waka got Alec Marsh and now Mike Lorenzen will slide into that fifth spot most likely so overall his numbers have been good but I know the last month of the year it hasn't been that great 24 and 2/3 1 and three record a 6.20 ER 1.66 whip but Mike Lorenzen still a veteran that goes out there he could go deep into ball games and just the last two outings were short outings for him but now going from the AL West to the AL Central where there's weaker hitting teams I think his fantasy value gets bumped up a little bit and he's on a contending team now with the Kansas City Royals so terms of fantasy baseball if he's out there leagues which he is available in 80% of fantasy leagues and deeper leagues I would take a flyer on Michael Lorenzen cuz like I said it's a good ballpark to pitch in over there in Kansas City he's got a good team backing him better than the Rangers this season and the renen even last season when he got traded the deadline once again to Philadelphia he had a great second half so Mike loreni could solidify the back end of the Royals rotation and I like the move not giving up much to get him and we'll see if he can help this Royal team get to the playoffs for the remainder of the 2024 season
