Yordano Ventura has been killed in a car accident in his native Dominican Republic.
Christian Moreno of ESPN first reported the awful news, and the Royals have since confirmed it. Ventura's fellow countryman, Andy Marte, was killed in a separate accident, as well, in what has been a tragic morning for baseball. Ventura was just 25 years of age. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends.
Jan 22 - 11:04 AM

Kansas City Royals on Twitter
Yordano Ventura fell to 11-12 after allowing four runs over six innings Friday versus the Indians.
Things fell apart for Ventura in the third inning, as he gave up four runs on four hits and a walk. He allowed six hits in all on the day while walking three and striking out eight. He also hit Francisco Lindor, apparently in retaliation for him celebrating after hitting a double in his previous at-bat. Ventura remains a frustrating talent in many ways. He took a step back this year, posting a 4.45 ERA over 32 starts while seeing an increase in his walk percentage and a decrease in his strikeout percentage.
Sat, Oct 1, 2016 12:26:00 AM
Yordano Ventura was removed from Saturday's start against the Tigers due to tightness in his lower back.
Prior to his departure, Ventura allowed three runs on 10 hits in his four-plus innings of work. It's unclear how much time the right-hander may miss, but it wouldn't be surprising to see the Royals shut him down for the remainder of the season.

Yordano Ventura was forced to leave Saturday's start against the Tigers in the fifth inning due to an apparent injury.
It's unclear exactly what the issue was, but the right-hander departed after a visit from the trainer and manager Ned Yost. Expect an update from the Royals shortly on his status.

Salvador Perez
Sidelined
Salvador Perez (groin) remained out of the Royals' lineup Sunday.
The hope had been that Perez could return to action on the final day, but he'll wind up missing the final three games of the season with a strained left groin. Drew Butera will catch.

He will miss the remainder of the 2017 season. The move was made as a procedural move though to free up a spot on the 40-man roster for Onelki Garcia.

Sidelined
Danny Duffy underwent surgery Tuesday to remove a loose body from his left elbow.
Duffy is expected to resume his normal offseason regimen in about six weeks and should be 100 percent by the beginning of spring training next February. The 28-year-old left-hander posted a 3.81 ERA, 1.257 WHIP, and 130/41 K/BB ratio across 146 1/3 innings (24 starts) this season for Kansas City. He signed a five-year, $65 million contract extension with the Royals last winter.

Miguel Almonte
60-Day DL
Royals recalled RHP Miguel Almonte from Triple-A Omaha; placed him on the 60-day disabled list with a right rotator cuff strain.
The move clears a 40-man roster spot for Paulo Orlando, who has been activated off the 60-day DL and optioned to Triple-A. Almonte suffered the shoulder injury last month at Tacoma and is presumably done for the season.
