Gose's Royals Comeback: Triple-A to MLB

0:00It's April 28th. Welcome in. This is MLB News today, where baseball meets AI. The Kansas City Royals just signed 35-year-old lefty reliever Anthony Goes to a minor league deal and sent him straight to AAA Omaha. This guy is a former top prospect who could be their bullpen boost right now. Goes started as a hot outfield pick, drafted in the second round by the Phillies back in 2008, then traded to the Blue Jays, where he debuted in the majors. His back cooled off after a few years, so he switched back to pitching in 2017, bouncing through minors with teams like Detroit, Texas, and Cleveland. Fans are buzzing because the Royals' relievers ranked 29th in ERA at 5.75, worse than almost everyone. Goes brings major league experience with 32 innings pitched, striking out nearly 30% of batters, but walking over 12%. Too high heat but command issues. For Tommy John's surgery in 2022, his basketball dip below 95 miles per hour last year in

1:02AAA, though he built it, back up. This offseason, he dominated in the Mexican league with 5 and 2-3 shutout innings, fanning 12 of 17 guys faced. If Goes lights up Omaha while Kansas City's pen keeps leaking, expect a quick call-up to help steady that late game fire. Keep an eye on this Vets comeback arc.
