CT Scan Comes Back Negative for Seth Lugo
Kansas City Royals right-hander Seth Lugo's (head) CT scan came back clear, and he will continue to be monitored, according to the team. Lugo was hit in the forehead by a 106.6 mph line drive off the bat of Texas Rangers outfielder Brandon Nimmo on Wednesday night in a scary scene at Kauffman Stadium. The veteran hurler was able to get up right away, although he quickly had a large lump on his head and was pulled from the game as a precaution. The 36-year-old will also likely be put through concussion tests, but for now, he appears to have avoided a serious injury. Lugo's next scheduled start on Monday against the Washington Nationals is up in the air, though, and fantasy managers will want to check back again in the next few days. Before leaving on Wednesday, Lugo allowed an earned run on three hits with one walk and two strikeouts in 3 1/3 innings pitched. The savvy veteran doesn't light up the radar gun or punch out hitters at a high rate, limiting his fantasy upside, but he's still a matchup-based streaming option in the right matchups.
