Shelved with elbow issue The Royals placed Lynch on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to left elbow nerve irritation.

Impact The injury may have played a part in Lynch's recent struggles; the lefty reliever has allowed four earned runs on 10 hits and four walks in 7.2 innings over his last seven appearances. Kansas City recalled right-hander Jonathan Bowlan from Triple-A Omaha to replace Lynch in the bullpen.

Strikes out four Lynch allowed one run on three hits and a walk while striking out four in 2.2 innings Tuesday against the Reds.

Impact Lynch made just his second start in what was his 23rd appearance overall this season. He allowed a second inning home run to Tyler Stephenson but also recorded season-highs in strikeouts and outs recorded. The numbers aren't flashy, but Lynch owns a 1.75 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 16:13 K:BB in 25.2 innings.

Set to start Tuesday Lynch will draw the start for Tuesday's contest versus the Reds, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Impact Lynch will toe the rubber for his second start of the year, after operating as an opener Wednesday versus the Giants, tossing 1.2 scoreless innings. The left-hander will likely have a similar role again Tuesday, carrying a 1.57 ERA and 1.26 WHIP into the outing.

Kicks off bullpen game Lynch didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against San Francisco, allowing one hit and three walks across 1.2 innings. He struck out two.

Impact Starters Cole Ragans (groin) and Seth Lugo (finger) hit the injured list Saturday, leaving an opening in the back end of Kansas City's rotation. Lynch has been used as a starter in past seasons, making him a candidate to fill the gap despite pitching only in relief to begin 2025. However, he threw just 40 pitches Wednesday and couldn't make it through two full frames in what ended up being a bullpen game for the Royals. It's unclear if Lynch will make another start and if the Royals will try to stretch him out, but Wednesday's outing shouldn't inspire much confidence in Lynch's short-term prospects as a rotation option.

Getting first start of season Lynch is slated to start Wednesday's game against the Giants in San Francisco, Jaylon T. Thompson of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Lynch has 54 career MLB starts on his ledger, but he's made all but three of his 36 appearances out of the bullpen since the 2024 season and has pitched exclusively in relief so far in 2025. The recent moves of Cole Ragans (groin) and Seth Lugo (finger) to the injured list will temporarily create an opening in the rotation, and Lynch could serve as the Royals' No. 5 starter until one of two injured hurlers is activated. Lynch has maxed out at two innings out of the bullpen this season and hasn't recorded more than four outs in an appearance since May 3, so the Royals could look to cap him at around 40 to 50 pitches Wednesday and treat the game as more of a bullpen day. Taylor Clarke and Angel Zerpa should be relatively fresh out of the bullpen and would likely be capable of giving the Royals multiple innings, if needed.
