The Royals announced today that they have selected the contract of infielder/outfielder . In a corresponding active roster move, outfielder has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to left elbow epicondylitis. To open a 40-man spot, left-hander was transferred to the 60-day IL. Devanney was a 2019 Brewers draftee (15th round) who landed in the Royals organization by way of 2023s trade. Hes posting career-best numbers in Triple-A this year, albeit as a 28-year-old whos in his fourth season at that level. Devanney has taken 288 turns at the plate and logged a .272/.366/ Mackenzie Gore Jersey .565 batting line with 18 homers, 14 doubles, a pair of triples, three steals (in four tries), an 11.8% walk rate and a 24.3% strikeout rate. Hes primarily played shortstop but also logged time at second base, at third base and in left field. The outfield work is largely new to him, but Devanney has 608 career innings at second and 806 career frames at third (plus more than 3100 innings as a shortstop). This will be Devanneys first action at the big league level. Hell give the Royals some versatility and a right-handed bat to replace that of Canha, whos posted a career-worst .212/.272/.265 slash in 125 plate appearances with Kansas City so far in 2025. Canha was sporting a league-average batting line into late May, but its fair to wonder how long his elbow has been bothering him, given that hes recorded an anemic .104/.137/.188 line over his past 51 trips to the plate. Ragans has already mi sed more than a month due to a rotator cuff strain and only recently resumed throwing. Hell need to progre s through multiple checkpoints throwing off a mound, facing live hitters before he commences a minor league rehab a signment thatll likely span multiple starts. It was already known that he was likely to be out beyond the All-Star break. The move to the 60-day injured list doesnt reset Ragans IL clock but rather pushes back the earliest po sible activation date. Given that only just starting to play catch after a four-week shutdown period, there wasnt much chance hed have been ready for activation before early-to-mid August anyhow. He can now be activated no earlier than Aug. 7. Cory Abbott Jersey
