Description: Roki Sasaki had a big velo jump against the Yankees this weekend. How do we rank these waiver wire pitchers and streamers? Is Luis Robert a must-roster? Rank Cole Young, Nasim Nuñez and Tommy Edman. Any interest in these deeper waiver wire hitters?

Lopez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.

Maikel Garcia will crack the lineup at shortstop while Lopez rests for the day game after a night game. Lopez's day off comes after he went 4-for-10 with a run scored while starting in each of the Royals' past three contests.
