Kris Bubic - Page 20 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Draws another start Bubic is scheduled to make his next start Wednesday against the White Sox, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Impact Bubic re-entered the rotation last week after Danny Duffy (forearm) and Brady Singer (shoulder) were placed on the injured list and capitalized on the opportunity. He worked six solid innings against Detroit, giving up a run on six hits and two walks en route to capturing his third win of the season. Neither Duffy nor Singer is due back this week, so Bubic will pick up a second straight turn through the rotation.

Solid start in win Bubic (3-4) allowed a run on six hits and two walks with four strikeouts in six innings to earn the win Friday over Detroit.

Impact After covering six innings of relief last Thursday, Bubic reentered Kansas City's rotation and delivered a similar workload. He was able to limit the damage to a third-inning solo home run by Willi Castro. The southpaw has seen a versatile role this year with nine of his 17 appearances being starts, and he's posted a 4.72 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 57:35 K:BB across 68.2 innings. If he's needed to cover for Brady Singer (shoulder) or Danny Duffy (forearm) again, Bubic tentatively lines up to face the White Sox next week.

Rejoins rotation Royals manager Mike Matheny said Bubic will start Friday's game against the Tigers, Lynn Worthy of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Bubic opened the second half in a bullpen role for Kansas City, but he'll reclaim a spot in the rotation after the Royals placed Danny Duffy (forearm) and Brady Singer (shoulder) on the injured list Tuesday. After Singer lasted only two innings in his most recent start Saturday, Bubic impressed in long relief, giving up one run on two hits and three walks while striking out five in six frames. Bubic is thus sufficiently stretched out to handle a starter's workload as he slots back into the rotation.

Logs six innings of relief Bubic allowed a run on two hits and three walks while striking out five in six innings during Saturday's loss to Baltimore.

Impact Bubic has now made half of his 16 appearances out of the bullpen, although he essentially saw a starter's workload Saturday after Brady Singer was ineffective. Bubic has a 5.03 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 53:33 K:BB in 62.2 innings overall, and he may be poised for a versatile role to begin the second half of the season.

Not starting Sunday Bubic will not start Sunday's game against Cleveland, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Impact Bubic previously lined up to take the ball for the series finale, but Kansas City will turn to Carlos Hernandez instead. Bubic could be an option out of the bullpen Sunday, though the club has yet to comment on that possibility. The left-hander has struggled mightily in both relief and starting roles dating back to June 6, allowing 29 earned runs on 41 hits across 27 innings. It's unclear at this point what his role will be following the All-Star break, if he has one at all with the big club.

Struggles again versus Reds Bubic allowed five runs on eight hits and three walks with four strikeouts in 4.1 innings versus Cincinnati on Tuesday. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact Bubic was spared from a third straight loss as Kansas City rallied for a walkoff win in the ninth inning. The southpaw has stilled allowed 13 runs across his last nine innings. He's posted a 5.40 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 48:30 K:BB across 56.2 innings overall in a versatile role that has seen him start eight of his 15 appearances. The 23-year-old tentatively lines up for a weekend start versus Cleveland.

Hit hard by Red Sox Bubic (2-4) allowed five earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out three across four innings to take the loss Thursday against the Red Sox.

Impact Bubic surrendered three home runs in his short outing, which accounted for all five of his earned runs. It's unclear what the outing may do to Bubic's role going forward, as he had pitched out of the bullpen in his most recent appearances prior to Thursday's start. He hasn't found much success in either role this season, as he has a 4.99 ERA with a 44:27 K:BB across 52.1 frames.

Starting Thursday Bubic will start Thursday's game against the Red Sox, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

Impact Bubic had taken on a bullpen role recently, and he allowed three runs on three hits and two walks in two-thirds of an inning to take the loss in his most recent appearance. However, he'll take the mound to begin Wednesday's series finale against the Red Sox. The southpaw has posted a 6.67 ERA and 1.82 WHIP in 29.2 innings across his last eight outings, but he could remain in the rotation after Thursday's start if he pitches well.

Struggles in relief Bubic (2-3) was tagged with the loss in relief Saturday against Texas after allowing three runs on three hits and two walks across two-thirds of an inning. He didn't strike out any...

Impact Bubic entered the game in the second inning after Kyle Zimmer pitched a scoreless opening frame, but he was unable to complete the inning and was lifted after tossing 40 pitches (21 strikes) and putting Kansas City down by three runs. Bubic's last two outings have come off the bullpen and it remains to be seen whether he'll return to the rotation any time soon. He's been struggling this month, though, as he owns a disastrous 9.40 ERA across six June appearances (18.2 innings).

Works in relief Bubic struck out two over 2.1 perfect innings in relief Tuesday in the Royals' 6-5 win over the Yankees.

Impact When starter Brady Singer was pulled midway through the bottom of the fourth after racking up 96 pitches, Bubic stepped in to get the Royals through the middle innings. The Royals will add another starter to the mix Wednesday when Danny Duffy (forearm) returns from the injured list, but his arrival won't necessarily close the door on Bubic sticking in the rotation. The decision on the team's No. 5 starter will likely come down to Bubic or Jackson Kowar, who also worked out of the bullpen in his most recent outing following a pair of disastrous starts to begin his big-league career.

JUNE 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Collects second win Bubic (2-2) allowed two runs on five hits and a walk and struck out two in 2.2 innings, earning the win Friday versus Boston.

Impact Bubic followed opener Kyle Zimmer and the former left the game with Kansas City ahead. The 23-year-old Bubic has still struggled in June with 17 runs (16 earned) allowed over 15.2 innings across four appearances. The southpaw has a 4.17 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 39:22 K:BB across 45.1 innings this year. If Kansas City gets back on a normal rotation, Bubic projects for a start versus the Yankees next week. The status of Brady Singer (shoulder) will likely play a large part in the team's pitching plans in the near term.

Won't start Saturday Bubic will not start Saturday's game against the Red Sox and will be available out of the bullpen beginning Friday, Lynn Worthy of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Bubic originally lined up to take the ball Saturday, but the Royals have opted to skip him and Jackson Kowar with the club having an off day Thursday and another off day Monday. Both Bubic and Kowar will be available out of the bullpen Friday and it's not clear what the Royals are planning to do with their rotation past this weekend. Brad Keller and Mike Minor will move up to start Saturday and Sunday respectively.

JUNE 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Shelled in loss Sunday Bubic (1-2) allowed five earned runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out five across 4.2 innings, taking the loss to the Athletics on Sunday.

Impact Bubic surrendered three solo home runs, one by Matt Chapman in the first inning and two off the bat of Matt Olson. The 23-year-old has struggled mightily of late, allowing 14 runs in his last 12 innings over three starts. His ERA has jumped to 4.01 and his WHIP is 1.43. He will look to turn the tide in his next start, tentatively scheduled for Saturday against the Red Sox.
