Kyle Zimmer moving from AA-NWA to AAA-Omaha, where he will continue to start. He pitched pretty well in his first start in NWA - 4 IP 6H 1 ER 6 K's 0 BB. From what I can see he has been touching 95 on the gun. Encouraging, and if he's healthy, I bet he gets at least a cup of coffee with the Royals by September.
Other pitchers on the 40-man eligible to be recalled following the demotions of Gore and Strahm are:
Scott Alexander (L)
Miguel Almonte (R)
Andrew Edwards (R)
Jake Junis (R)
Kevin McCarthy (R)
In all likelihood two of the above five players are coming to KC.
