Royals Make Multiple Roster Moves as Offseason Preparations Begin The Kansas City Royals made several pitching roster moves, opening five spots on their 40-man roster as they begin preparing for the 2027 se...

Alex Lange - Exits 40-man roster The Royals outrighted Lange to Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.

Impact Lange ranked second on the Royals with 10 saves this season, but he finished with an unsightly 6.75 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 60:33 K:BB over 60 innings. The 31-year-old will remain in the organization for the time being, but he's a non-tender candidate.

Mason Black - Scrubbed from 40-man roster The Royals outrighted Black to Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.

Impact The transaction frees a spot on the 40-man roster as the Royals head into the offseeason. Black has made eight starts and 19 relief appearances thus far at the big-league level, logging a 5.53 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 55:35 K:BB over 71.2 innings. He'll turn 27 in December.

23 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Easton McGee - Booted off 40-man roster The Royals outrighted McGee to Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.

Impact Having been outrighted previously, McGee has the right to decline the assignment by the Royals and become a free agent. McGee has authored a 4.54 ERA and 25:11 K:BB over 35.2 frames covering parts of four seasons at the big-league level.

23 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Connor Seabold - Sent outright to Triple-A The Royals outrighted Seabold (lat) to Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.

Impact Seabold has the ability to decline the outright assignment and become a free agent. The right-hander missed the final three months of this season with a right lat strain, but he made some rehab appearances in September so he should have a relatively normal offseason. Seabold logged a 5.25 ERA, 1.71 WHIP and 20:11 K:BB over 24 innings in the majors in 2026.

23 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Alec Marsh - Outrighted to Triple-A The Royals outrighted Marsh (shoulder) to Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.

Impact Marsh has missed two consecutive seasons due to shoulder problems and is still rehabbing from November 2025 labrum surgery. He could be ready by Opening Day, though Marsh is no longer on the 40-man roster and it's unclear how his shoulder will bounce back post-surgery.
