Pair of Key Royals Close to Return

 

The Royals are off to a slow start to the 2023 season, but help could potentially be on the way within the next few weeks.

 

A pair of players that impressed in spring training are in the final stages of rehab assignments from injury, and expected to join the team within the month.

 

Left handed pitcher Daniel Lynch looked like a lock for the starting rotation before straining his rotator cuff on March 23rd. Lynch played catch on April 1st and will throw a bullpen in Arizona later today. Pending setbacks, he'll progress to live batting practice, with a projected early May return to Kansas City.

 

Promising young outfielder Drew Waters strained his oblique at the beginning of spring training, but his rehab has come along nicely. He will participate in extended spring games in Arizona this week, and if all goes well, he can rejoin the big league team at the beginning of May.
