Placed on 10-day IL Lynch was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a right hand contusion, Lynn Worthy of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact The right-hander wasn't expected to make another start this season already and will finish with a 5.59 ERA in 69 innings. Angel Zerpa was called up from Triple-A Omaha on Thursday to make his MLB debut versus Cleveland.

Fine after being hit by liner Royals manager Mike Matheny said after Wednesday's 10-5 win over Cleveland that Lynch is OK after exiting in the fourth inning when he was struck by a comebacker, Anne Rogers of ML...

Impact Lynch's pitch count was already at 81 at the time he was removed, and he had already surrendered four runs on seven hits and two walks over three innings, so the Royals opted to pull him as more of a precaution since he wasn't expected to work much longer into the start. He'll head into the offseason healthy and conclude his rookie campaign with a 4-6 record, 5.59 ERA and 1.63 WHIP in 68 innings. The 24-year-old southpaw will likely have to compete for a rotation spot next spring.

Short final outing Lynch allowed four earned runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out two across three innings Wednesday against Cleveland. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Lynch's final line wasn't impressive, though he also wasn't hit all that hard as the only extra-base hit he allowed was a double. On the other hand, he continued to struggle with his command as Wednesday' outing marked the ninth time in his last 11 appearances that he has walked at least two hitters. Lynch ends his rookie season with a disastrous 5.69 ERA and 1.63 WHIP while also posting a 55:31 K:BB across 68 innings. The former first-round pick should spend the entire 2022 season in the Royals' rotation and will look to improve upon his 4.1 BB/9.

Dealt sixth loss Lynch (4-6) was charged with the loss against Cleveland on Tuesday after surrendering four runs on four hits and three walks while striking out five across six innings.

Impact Lynch allowed Cleveland to hit hard and hit early. After loading the bases with a pair of walks and a single in the first inning, Lynch earned his first out by sending Franmil Reyes down on strikes, but Yu Chang followed with bases-clearing triple to take a 3-0 lead. The southpaw's final damage of the night came from an Ernie Clement home run in the third. Lynch's first-inning woes are nothing new, as the 24-year-old has given up 19 earned runs in the first frames of his 14 starts. Overall this year, Lynch has compiled a 5.40 ERA and 1.57 WHIP.

On track to make start Lynch (calf) is expected to make his next scheduled start Tuesday versus Cleveland, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Impact Lynch left his last start Thursday versus Oakland due to calf tightness in the third inning. It doesn't appear as if the injury will cost him any additional time.

Impact Lynch appeared to tweak his calf on a pitch in the top of the third inning Thursday and was immediately removed from the contest. It's not yet clear whether the issue will force him to miss additional time. If he's able to make his next turn through the rotation, the southpaw tentatively lines up to start Tuesday against Cleveland.

Exits with apparent injury Lynch was removed from Thursday's game against the Athletics in the top of the third inning due to an apparent lower-body injury, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

Impact Lynch started Thursday's game and allowed a run on two hits and a walk while striking out one in two innings, but he was visited by a trainer after he appeared to tweak something on a pitch in the third frame. The nature and severity of the injury aren't yet known, and it's unclear whether the issue will force him to spend time on the injured list.
