With a potential playoff berth in sight, the Kansas City Royals made a pair of claims off the waiver wire, adding outfielders Tommy Pham and Robbie Grossman on Saturday.
Both players participated in last year's World Series, with Pham on the Arizona Diamondbacks and Grossman on the champion Texas Rangers.
Kansas City first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino broken his thumb earlier this week and is set to miss six to eight weeks.
Pham, 36, was designated for assignment by the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday.
