The Rays won both games against Boston this weekend after having a game postponed on Friday. Tampa Bay's starters allowed two earned runs in 12.2 innings against the Red Sox and the Rays' 2.07 rotation ERA is a full run lower than the next closest rotation (Blue Jays -- 3.08).

The Royals dropped two of three to the Angels in Kansas City over the weekend. That was Kansas City's fourth consecutive series loss since sweeping Cleveland in mid-April. Since April 15, the Royals' rotation has a 6.20 ERA, highest in baseball.

The Rays took two of three from the Royals in Tampa last week. The loss came in the third game of the series and snapped Tampa Bay's 10-game winning streak against Kansas City. The Royals won that game 10-2, the only time they have reached double-digit runs this season.

Ryne Stanek allowed one hit and no runs in 1.1 innings against the Royals on April 23, his last appearance. Stanek has not recorded a strikeout in his last three outings after striking out 13 in 9.1 innings across his first eight appearances this season.

Yandy Diaz had three extra-base hits (a double, a triple and a home run) and three RBI in the two-game set with the Red Sox. The Rays are 10-2 this season when Diaz plates a run, the fourth-best record by any player with 10 games with an RBI this season.

Hunter Dozier had six hits and five RBI against the Angels, including a four-hit game with two triples and four RBI on Saturday. Dozier's nine multi-hit games since April 11 are the most in the American League over that span.

HP - Tumpane, 1B - Lentz, 2B - Barrett, 3B - Danley

It's hard to say what is more ominous for the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday: the weather forecast that may prevent them from facing the Tampa Bay Rays, or actually facing the Tampa Bay Rays.
The Rays defeated the Royals 8-5 Monday night, Tampa Bay's 11th win in the last 12 games against the Royals. The Rays run defending Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell (2-2, 2.54 ERA) to the mound to face Jakob Junis (2-2, 5.57) of the Royals.

Royals to face Rays or rain on Tuesday

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP)  The Tampa Bay Rays have successfully started a Cy Young Award winner and relievers, generated offense from everyone in their hobbled lineup, and watched as their bullpen has preserved far more leads than they've squandered.
No wonder they have the best record in the majors as the end of April nears.
