Jeremy Guthrie was shaky in his Royals debut Sunday, allowing five run on four hits and three walks in five innings of a 7-5 loss to the Twins. He struck out four, and served up a solo home run to Ryan Doumit. A rocky start, but Guthrie should almost certainly be much better for the Royals than he was for the Rockies. He has a favorable matchup lined up for Friday, where he'll get the Mariners in Seattle.
