Pitcher Kris Bubic won’t go to Omaha after all. The KC Royals recalled him.
Half of the KC Royals’ latest roster transaction is surprising. The other half isn’t.
The Royals, after revealing their 2021 minor league rosters just a couple of days ago and listing Kris Bubic with Triple-A Omaha, reversed course and have recalled Bubic. To make room for him on the active roster, Kansas City optioned out Ryan McBroom.
It’s not his return to the majors that makes the Bubic move surprising, it’s the timing.
