Takes loss Sunday King (0-2) was tagged with the loss Sunday against the Tigers after allowing four runs (two earned) on three hits and two walks while fanning two across 2.1 innings.

Impact King couldn't even get out of the third inning due to his command issues -- tossing just 37 of his 63 pitches for strikes -- and his lack of effectiveness. This was his first start of the campaign and while the results weren't encouraging, he's still been a reliable presence on the mound for the Yankees and owns a 2.86 ERA on the season.

Starting Sunday King will start Sunday against the Tigers, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

Impact The Yankees are down a starter with Corey Kluber shut down for four weeks with a shoulder strain. King relieved Kluber after he got hurt Tuesday against Toronto, allowing one run in three innings. It's unclear if he'll replace Kluber long-term, as that honor could also go to Deivi Garcia, who started Saturday against the Tigers but was optioned following the game.

Relieves injured Kluber in loss King covered three innings out of the bullpen Tuesday in the Yankees' 6-2 loss to the Blue Jays, surrendering one run on six hits and a walk while striking out three.

Impact King tossed 54 pitches over the three-inning appearance, his longest outing since April 16. The Yankees needed King to eat innings after starter Corey Kluber covered only three frames before departing with right shoulder tightness. The Yankees will send Kluber in for an MRI on Wednesday to glean a better picture of the severity of his injury, leaving his availability in question for his next turn through the rotation Sunday in Detroit. King and Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre starter Deivi Garcia would appear to be the leading candidates to step into the rotation if Kluber isn't cleared for the weekend.

Charged with first loss King (0-1) allowed one run on two hits and a walk in two innings to take the loss against the Orioles on Sunday.

Impact King entered Sunday's game in the fourth inning of a 5-5 tie, but he gave up a pair of doubles and was charged with his first loss of 2021. The right-hander has posted a 2.16 ERA and 1.02 WHIP in 16.2 innings across six relief appearances this season.

Strikes out six Rays King pitched 2.1 innings in relief against Tampa Bay on Thursday, allowing three runs on two hits and two walks while striking out six.

Impact The right-hander came on in relief of Jameson Taillon with a pair of runners on base and two outs in the bottom of the fifth inning. King registered a strikeout to escape the jam but then served up a three-run homer to Randy Arozarena in the next frame. The trio of runs were the first King has given up this season. Despite the imperfect outing, he still owns a 1.84 ERA and 0.95 WHIP across 14.2 innings.

Returns to alternate site King was optioned to the alternate training site after Wednesday's win over the Orioles.

Impact The 25-year-old rejoined the big-league roster Tuesday and will head back to the alternate site after firing two scoreless innings during Wednesday's victory. King has yet to allow a run through 11 innings for the Yankees this season, so it shouldn't be too long before he's back in the majors. Wandy Peralta is expected to be added to the roster Thursday after being acquired from the Giants earlier this week.

Rejoins big club The Yankees recalled King from their alternate training site Tuesday.

Impact He'll be taking the active roster spot of Deivi Garcia, who was optioned to the Yankees' alternate site following his spot start in Monday's loss to the Orioles. King was effective over two long-relief outings with the Yankees earlier this season, covering nine scoreless frames while allowing only eight baserunners.

APRIL 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to alternate camp King was optioned to the Yankees' alternate training site Friday.

Impact King served as the primary pitcher in Friday's loss to the Rays and allowed two hits and three walks while striking out four in three scoreless frames. He didn't factor into the decision. The right-hander has now tossed nine scoreless frames in his first two appearances this year and could return to the majors at some point as a long reliever or as an option to serve as a starter.
