Royals Move Misner to DFA, Fill 40-man Spot with Nate Pearson

Kansas City designated outfielder Kameron Misner for assignment to clear a 40-man roster spot for right-hander Nate Pearson, whose acquisition from the Astros is now confirmed. Misner, a 2018 first-round pick, has struggled in 18 MLB games this season (.220/.256/.244) but has shined in Triple-A Omaha (.286/.378/.563 with 14 homers and 14 steals). He’s in the last year of his three minor-league option years, so he can be sent to Triple-A if unclaimed or traded; his DFA window runs for up to five days, with another 48-hour waiver period if he clears.

Royals land former top pitching prospect Nate Pearson from Astros in exchange for Max Martin

The Kansas City Royals acquired right-hander Nate Pearson from the Houston Astros in exchange for minor-league right-hander Max Martin after Pearson was designated for assignment by Houston. Pearson, once a top prospect, has battled injuries and has mostly pitched in relief, but remains controllable through 2027. Kansas City cleared a roster spot by DFA’ing Kameron Misner to complete the deal, while Houston gains a lower-cost bullpen depth piece and trims some payroll.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Powers Blue Jays to Victory with Home Runs.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s two-run homer in the sixth inning provided crucial padding for the Blue Jays' bullpen in their 7-3 win against the A's. The win is important for the Blue Jays as they try to turn their season around heading into the second half. The bullpen has been heavily relied upon this season, and the win allowed them to pitch in lower leverage situations. Nate Pearson also had a clean inning of his own, which was a great way for him to rebound from a tough outing last week.

Blue Jays' Mitch White to Start Season on Injured List, Affecting Bullpen and Pearson.

Blue Jays pitcher Mitch White is dealing with elbow inflammation and is likely to start the season on the injured list. Right-hander Zach Pop appears poised to make the Opening Day roster as the primary long relief option for the club. Former top prospect Nate Pearson was among the latest round of cuts from Blue Jays camp. The team seems unperturbed by the lack of a traditional long reliever in their bullpen, as both Pop and fellow righty Trevor Richards can go multiple innings if necessary.
