<p>As the Blue Jays and Royals look to hit the field for their final game of a four-game set, they face heavy rain in Kanas City.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Weather forecasts have the area around Kaufmann Stadium getting pounded with rain, and <em><a href="https://rotogrinders.com/weather/mlb">RotoGrinders&#8217;</a> </em>Kevin Roth is predicting a rain delay, at the very least.</p>
<p>&#8220;(It) certainly doesn&#8217;t look like it will be getting played on time,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We should see heavy rain in the rain around game time, so a late start and play (kicking it into the late afternoon) looks like the only way to get this one in. If they don&#8217;t feel like being that patient and/or if the field gets flooded I could see this getting (postponed).&#8221;</p>
<p>According to <a href="https://twitter.com/bnicholsonsmith/status/1783539496698483131"><em>Sportsnet&#8217;s</em></a> Ben Nicholson-Smith, if the game does get rained out, both clubs have off-day&#8217;s next Thursday in which the game could be played.</p>
<p>Nonetheless, the Jays are set to send the red-hot Jose Berrios to the mound, while the Royals</p>
