Angel Zerpa Activated And Optioned
1 year agoThe Kansas City Royals reinstated left-hander Angel Zerpa (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list on Friday and optioned him to Triple-A Omaha. The Royals also moved right-hander Josh Staumont (neck) to the 60-day injured list. Zerpa had a solid 2.91 ERA, 1.92 WHIP, nine walks and 22 strikeouts in 21 2/3 innings over six rehab starts with Double-A Northwest Arkansas and Omaha, and he'll continue to work in Omaha's starting rotation now that he's fully healthy. The 23-year-old southpaw made his big-league debut back in 2021 with one start. In four appearances (three starts) for the Royals in 2021 and 2022, Zerpa went 2-2 with a strong 1.13 ERA (4.63 FIP), 1.00 WHIP, four walks and seven strikeouts in 16 innings.
