4/20/25 | Royals rally in series finale with Tigers, snap six-game losing skid. Kansas City Royals Royals rally in series finale with Tigers, snap six-game losing skid KMIZ By Kyle Helms New Published April 20, 2025 5:43 PM DETROIT, Mich. (KMIZ) The Royals have captured a much-needed win to salvage a troublesome road trip. Kansas City (9-14) posted a 4-3 victory in come-from-behind fashion to avoid a four-game sweep against Detroit (13-9). Following Sunday's win, manager Matt Quatraro's team returns home after enduring eight losses across its 10 straight road games. Unlike the majority of this four-game set, the Royals attacked Detroit's pitching staff early, charging the team with the American League's best ERA with two runs in the second inning.

Kansas City Royals slugger Vinnie Pasquantino's status for Opening Day is unclear after he strained his hamstring late last week. Vinnie Pasquantino has a Grade 1+ hamstring strain.

3/05/25 | ESPN Says That Kansas City Royals Top Prospect Could Make Big-League Debut This Season. At 6-5 and 250 pounds, Caglianone is an imposing presence, though he's not some wild-swinging, homer-or-nothing prospect. At High-A and in the Arizona Fall League, he struck out only 20% of the time. Kansas City has something of a first-base glut with Vinnie Pasquantino and Salvador Perez, so Caglianone will get outfield reps this year and could find himself playing in a corner, accelerating the timeline for his big league debut to perhaps as soon as this summer.
