Luinder Avila: Breaking News

The Royals recalled Avila from Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday. Avila has made one start and one long relief appearance with Kansas City this season, yielding six runs with a 6:4 K:BB over six innings of work. He will provide the Royals' bullpen with some length.

The Royals optioned Avila to Triple-A Omaha on Thursday. Avila surrendered five earned runs in just three innings during his season debut against the Brewers on Saturday. He found more success after moving to the bullpen for his next outing, giving up just one run in three frames against Cleveland on Wednesday, but the Royals will remove him from their active roster nonetheless. Mitch Spence will come up from Omaha in a corresponding move to fill Kansas City's need for a multi-inning reliever.

Avila is available to pitch out of the Royals' bullpen beginning Wednesday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports. Avila struggled in a spot start Saturday versus the Brewers, yielding five runs on eight hits and three walks in three innings. There's no longer a need for him in the rotation, but with the Royals' bullpen a bit short-handed, Avila will help out in relief for now rather than rejoin the rotation at Triple-A Omaha.
