Royals placed outfielder Coco Crisp on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to June 13, with a right rotator cuff strain.
Crisp was attempting to play through the pain, but it just wasn't happening. He shouldn't be out longer than the allotted 15 days. The 29-year-old is batting a career-low .228 with three home runs and 14 RBI. Since the Royals declined to add another outfielder to replace him, it looks like Mitch Maier will play center for now.
