Kansas City Royals: What does Kyle Zimmer bring to the table?

Kyle Zimmer was chosen in the first round of the 2012 amateur draft by the Kansas City Royals with the fifth selection. His tenure in the organization has not been without obstacles. His story is riddled with injuries; his latest held him out of the entire 2018 season.

He was recently signed to a major league contract with the Royals, with Cheslor Cuthbert‘s DFA as the corresponding move. Though health is a large question with Zimmer, he may be a viable option coming out of the bullpen for the Royals in the 2019 season.
