No-decision in spot start Lynch allowed three runs (two earned) on five hits and struck out two without walking a batter in a no-decision Thursday versus the Twins.

Impact Lynch got the nod for a spot start when Brady Singer (illness) was deemed unavailable to pitch Thursday. The three runs on Lynch's line came on a pair of home runs by Ryan Jeffers, though the Kansas City southpaw still left the game with a lead before Chris Stratton squandered it in the sixth inning. Lynch has a 1.50 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 8:2 K:BB over 12 innings across three outings (two starts) at the major-league level. Assuming Singer can rejoin the rotation for his next start, Lynch may either be moved to the bullpen or sent back to Triple-A Omaha for a fresher arm.

Royals right-hander Brady Singer a late scratch at Minnesota because of illness

The Kansas City Royals scratched starting right-handed pitcher Brady Singer from the lineup because of illness less than three hours before their afternoon game at Minnesota

Recalled for spot start The Royals recalled Lynch from Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.

Impact Lynch will make a spot start Thursday in Minnesota in place of Brady Singer (illness), according to Jaylon T. Thompson of The Kansas City Star. The left-hander has made one start and one relief appearance with the Royals this season, tossing a combined seven shutout frames with a 6:2 K:BB. He's had a more difficult time with Omaha, however, collecting a 4.76 ERA and 34:13 K:BB over 45.1 innings. Unless Singer's illness results in him landing on the injured list, Lynch will likely be sent back down to Omaha after Thursday's start.

Impact Lynch was promoted from Triple-A Omaha ahead of Sunday's start and he certainly stepped up his game, blanking the defending champs over five frames. The left-hander was able to work around three baserunners in the first inning to set the tone and ultimately went on to pitch four more scoreless innings in his first major-league outing of the year. Lynch could remain in the starting rotation for Kansas City for the time being with Alec Marsh (elbow) still unavailable. If he gets another turn in the rotation with the big-league club, Lynch's next start is tentatively set to come on the road against the Angels next weekend.

Pitching in Arizona Fall League Lynch (shoulder) is pitching in an Arizona Fall League game Thursday, Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com reports.

Impact Lynch missed most of the second half due to a shoulder injury, but he logged one rehab start with Triple-A Omaha in late September and is now making up for lost time in the AFL. The 26-year-old left-hander could be a candidate for an Opening Day rotation spot with the Royals in 2024 if his health cooperates.

Begins rehab assignment Lynch (shoulder) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.

Impact Lynch is on the 60-day injured list, and with just over a week left in the season, it seems unlikely he'll be able to get back to the majors. However, his rehab is far enough along that he should be good to go at the start of the 2024 campaign. He may be able to get in a couple of appearances with Omaha before shutting it down for the year.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Nearing rehab assignment Lynch (shoulder) will throw a bullpen session with Triple-A Omaha this week and is expected to make at least one rehab appearance there soon, MLB.com reports.

Impact It does not sound like Lynch will make it back to the Royals' active roster this season, but make some appearances before the season comes to a close could give the lefty some peace of mind heading into the winter. Lynch has been limited to just nine starts for Kansas City along with five rehab starts in 2023 due to shoulder issues.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Moves to 60-day IL Lynch (shoulder) was transferred from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list Wednesday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Impact Lynch has been sidelined by a shoulder strain since mid-July, and the move to the 60-day IL likely won't affect his return timeline. The left-hander has been throwing bullpen sessions but traveled to the Royals' spring facility Wednesday and will soon face live hitters. He could soon be cleared for a minor-league rehab assignment if the session of live batting practice goes well.

Bullpen session scheduled Lynch (shoulder) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Impact Lynch has been shut down since receiving an injection in his injured shoulder in late July, but it appears he is ready to get back on the bump.

AUGUST 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Shut down for multiple weeks Lynch (shoulder) received an injection Friday and will be shut down for 2-to-3 weeks, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Impact After suffering a setback during his bullpen session Monday, Lynch is now facing an extended absence. There is currently no timeline in place for Lynch's return, but a better picture could come once he's cleared to resume throwing in mid-August.

JULY 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Setback with shoulder Lynch (shoulder) was unable to complete a scheduled bullpen session Monday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Impact Lynch is scheduled to undergo follow-up testing later this week, and his IL stint is now certain to last longer than 15 days. He's been on the shelf since July 19 because of a left shoulder strain that was initially believed to be relatively minor.

Royals place left-hander Daniel Lynch on injured list with shoulder strain

The Kansas City Royals put left-hander Daniel Lynch on the injured list with a strained shoulder before their game Wednesday night against the Detroit Tigers

JULY 19, 2023 • Associated Press

Back to IL with shoulder strain Lynch was placed on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a left shoulder strain.

Impact It's the same injury which cost him the first two months of the season. Lynch had authored three quality starts in four tries prior to struggling Tuesday versus the Tigers (although he did get the win) and it appears he might have been pitching compromised. It's not clear at this point how long he might be on the shelf.

Struggles in win Lynch (3-4) earned the win Tuesday, allowing five runs on six hits and two walks over five innings in an 11-10 victory over Detroit. He struck out three.

Impact Lynch struggled with the long ball Tuesday, surrendering a two-run home run to Spencer Torkelson in the first inning and then being tagged again by Torkelson in the fifth for a three-run homer. Despite Torkelson's efforts, Lynch managed to pick up the victory, his third in five starts. During that stretch (29 innings), Lynch owns a 3.72 ERA and a 14:9 K:BB. He's tentatively scheduled for a road meeting against the Yankers for his next start.

JULY 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Stuck with loss in quality start Lynch (2-4) took the loss Friday, giving up three runs on six hits and a walk over six innings as the Royals fell 3-0 to the Guardians. He struck out three.

Impact The quality start was the third in Lynch's last four outings, but he got no help from a Kansas City offense that managed only two hits all night. The southpaw has a 2.63 ERA and 1.04 WHIP over that four-start stretch, but an 11:7 K:BB in 24 innings puts a damper on his fantasy appeal heading into the second half of the season.
