Inbox: What's up with former top pick Russell?

The Royals have won four straight and climbed back to 6-6, thanks mostly to a rotation that has posted a Major League-best 2.31 ERA. At some point, the offense will catch up, and as manager Ned Yost said Sunday, Kansas City could get on a serious roll.

@FlannyMLB Have you heard anything about Ashe Russell? Mysteriously shut down last year, isn't assigned anywhere this year.

Ashe Russell was the Royals' first-round pick in 2015, a high school pitcher out of Indiana.
