JONESBORO, Ark. (6/23/20) – JONESBORO, Ark. (6/23/20) – Former Arkansas State relief pitcher Tyler Zuber, who has spent the last three seasons in the Kansas City Royals Minor League system, has made the Opening Day roster for the Major League club.
Zuber had an impressive a summer camp for the Royals, when he pitched to a respectable 1.17 ERA over 7.2 innings, registering nine strikeouts. He only allowed three hits and a walk and held opposing batters to a .130 average.
Should he appear in a game, he'd be the first former A-State player to play in big leagues since Daniel Wright in 2017 season for Angels.
