Shut down with neck spasms The Royals placed Zimmer on the 10-day injured list Wednesday due to neck spasms, Lynn Worthy of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Kansas City reinstated infielder Emmanuel Rivera (wrist) from the 10-day IL in a corresponding move. Zimmer presumably experienced the neck issues during his appearance in Tuesday's 7-1 loss to the White Sox, when he walked all three batters he faced.

Takes first loss Zimmer (4-1) allowed two runs on a hit and a walk with one strikeout in one-third of an inning, taking a blown save and the loss Tuesday versus the White Sox.

Impact Jake Brentz didn't pitch well ahead of Zimmer in the eighth inning, but it was the latter who allowed a go-ahead three-run home run to Eloy Jimenez. The loss was the first of the year for Zimmer, but he's been struggling throughout July with 10 runs allowed in his last 10.1 innings. The right-hander owns a 4.17 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 40:21 K:BB while notching two saves and 10 holds through 41 innings overall.

Jiménez hits 3-run HR, rallies White Sox past Royals 5-3

Eloy Jiménez logged his first big hit of the season, launching a go-ahead, three-run homer in the eighth inning that sent the Chicago White Sox over the Kansas City Royals 5-3

Shaky run in July Zimmer has allowed six runs in his last 4.1 innings.

Impact Zimmer pitched solidly through the first three months of the season, but the right-hander has not enjoyed the same success in July. He's yielded runs in four of his last five outings, pushing his ERA up 3.62 through 37.1 innings overall. The 29-year-old should still be a candidate for some high-leverage work, but Wade Davis' return from a forearm injury could further crowd a very fluid bullpen situation in Kansas City.

Earns win in relief Zimmer (4-0) earned the win in relief Saturday against Minnesota after tossing a scoreless inning in which he issued a walk.

Impact Zimmer came in to pitch the fifth inning and while he walked Nelson Cruz to begin the inning, he needed only nine pitches to get through the inning and earn his fourth win of the campaign. He has allowed just one earned run over his last five appearances (five innings) and owns a strong 2.57 ERA since the beginning of June.

Tosses scoreless outing as opener Zimmer didn't factor into the decision Saturday against the Rangers after tossing a scoreless inning, giving up two walks and fanning two.

Impact Zimmer worked as the opener in this contest and tossed one scoreless inning before being lifted in favor of Kris Bubic, who was tagged with the loss after allowing three runs across two-thirds of an inning. Zimmer has allowed two runs across 3.1 innings in relief this week and should remain a dependable arm for Kansas City going forward, as he owns a 2.40 ERA across 30.0 innings in 2021.

Serving as opener Saturday Zimmer will serve as the opener in Saturday's game against the Rangers, Lynn Worthy of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Zimmer made three relief appearances across the last week, and he allowed two runs on two hits and two walks while striking out one in 2.1 innings during that time. However, he'll serve as an opener for the second time this year in Saturday's contest, while southpaw Kris Bubic will likely serve as the primary pitcher.
