The Bobby Witt Jr. show rolls on this week. Witt, having hit a home run that drew comparisons to Mike Trout on Monday, did it again yesterday with a long shot against the Reds.

He will be the man to watch today against the Rangers in a lineup that features mostly minor leaguers and Cactus League MVP frontrunner Edward Olivares.

Carlos Hernández goes on the mound for the Royals, with Jackson Kowar, Ronald Bolaños, Colten Brewer and Josh Staumont all likely to get action as well.

Game time is 3:05 CT from Surprise and you can watch the game on Bally Sports Kansas City as well as royals.com.
