Shaky in save Staumont earned the save while recording a walk and a strikeout in the ninth inning of a 4-3 win Tuesday over Minnesota.

Impact Staumont threw more balls than strikes but was able to preserve the lead and earn his second save of the season. The righty has been called upon to close out the game in the last two contests for the Royals and is the lone member of the Kansas City bullpen to record a save. Incumbent closer Scott Barlow pitched the eighth inning and earned a hold for the second straight game.

Nails down first save of season Staumont struck out two in a perfect ninth inning Saturday to record his first save of the season in a 3-1 win over the Tigers.

Impact Scott Barlow came into the year as the presumed closer for manager Mike Matheny, but it was Staumont who got the Royals' first save of 2022 while Barlow entered the game with two outs and one on in the seventh inning to pick up a hold. Both right-handers had worked the day before, so it seems clear they are the top two arms in the Kansas City bullpen for now, but if Barlow gets deployed in more of a fireman role, Staumont's fantasy value will rise quickly.

Clean inning in relief Staumont pitcher the eighth inning, striking out one in a 2-1 loss Friday against Detroit.

Impact Staumont needed just nine pitches to retire the side in order in the eighth. It was the first clean inning of the season for the righty. In 2021, Staumont allowed fewer than 6 H/9 while having nearly 10 K/9 and picking up a handful of saves. Scott Barlow is the closer for the Royals but Staumont is still one of the top arms in their bullpen.

Struggling in spring Staumont has allowed five runs on three hits and six walks while striking out three over 3.2 innings in four Cactus League games.

Impact It's too early to worry much about his performance, but it's a little concerning to see him struggle. The right-hander was excellent as part of a closer committee last season, logging five saves, 16 holds, a 2.88 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 72:27 K:BB in 64 appearances. He only allowed 0.8 HR/9 while flexing a 96.6 mph average on his fastball. Staumont enters the season in the mix for high-leverage innings again, though Scott Barlow is expected to get the majority of the save chances at the start of 2022.

OCTOBER 4, 2021 • Associated Press

Collects win over Cleveland Staumont (4-3) struck out one in 1.1 perfect innings to earn the win Tuesday over Cleveland.

Impact In what became a de facto bullpen game for Kansas City after Brady Singer (Arm) left in the first inning, Staumont was able to get the last out of the eighth inning and retire the side in the ninth without trouble. The right-hander has kept runs off the board in 11 of 12 appearances in September, posting a 1.46 ERA, 0.65 WHIP and seven holds in 12.1 innings this month. For the season, he's pitched to a 2.92 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, 72:27 K:BB, five saves and 16 holds through 64.2 innings, primarily in high-leverage situations.

Picks up 15th hold Staumont walked two and struck out two over 1.1 scoreless innings to earn a hold in Friday's 3-1 win over Detroit.

Impact The right-hander got the last out of the seventh inning after Jake Brentz struggled. Staumont then worked out of his own jam in the eighth to record his 15th hold of the season. The 27-year-old has added five saves and a 3-3 record across 61 appearances, while logging a 3.03 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 69:27 K:BB as a reliable high-leverage option.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2021 • Associated Press

Responsible for loss Staumont (3-3) allowed three runs (two earned) on two hits and a walk in one-third of an inning, taking the loss Wednesday versus Baltimore.

Impact The 27-year-old was brought into the game with no outs and two runners in scoring position in the eighth inning. Staumont allowed both runners inherited from Joel Payamps to score, and the former put three of the four batters he faced aboard as well. Staumont ultimately took the loss when Jake Brentz couldn't escape a bases-loaded jam. The sloppy outing inflated Staumont's ERA to 3.44 with a 1.16 WHIP, 64:23 K:BB, five saves and 10 holds through 55 innings. Lately he's seen more save chances go to Scott Barlow, but Staumont remains part of Kansas City's plans in high-leverage spots.
