Royals Move, Farm System Buzz, MLB Shifts | Kansas City Royals News

The Royals just added Easton McGee to their bullpen in a trade with Milwaukee, sending Nick Mears to the injured list to make room. McGee, 28, pitched scoreless innings in brief appearances this season, mostly in Triple-A. Meanwhile, the Royals’ farm system is gaining attention—with Zion Rose and Taylor Rabe rising up the ranks, especially Rose’s power-speed combo. Local buzz also surrounds the draft of Maxx Yehl from Wellsville. MLB is cracking down on players skipping the Olympics, while the White Sox handed out a record bonus to Roch Cholowsky. The MLBPA is pushing back against MLB’s “Level The Playing Field” push, which hints at a potential salary cap. Elsewhere, Ohtani’s set to DH this weekend, and the Rays are rumored to be eyeing Tarik Skubal. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
