Zack Greinke taking ball for Royals on Opening Day

Kansas City Royals pitcher Zack Greinke has been named the Opening Day starter versus the Minnesota Twins.

What It Means:

The Royals are understandably choosing Greinke over the younger Brady Singer. The 39-year-old right-hander will be making his seventh career Opening Day start.

numberFire's models project Greinke to score 17.5 FanDuel points on Opening Day. He's expected to record a 4.43 ERA and 1.31 WHIP over the course of the season, with 107 strikeouts and 36 walks.
