Yordano Ventura was terrific in Friday's victory over the Indians, allowing just one run on six hits over 8 1/3 innings.
The rookie right-hander carried a shutout into the ninth inning, before being denied by Michael Brantley's solo blast. He struck out four in the impressive outing while walking a pair. Now 6-7 on the year, he'll bring a terrific 3.07 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 80/27 K/BB ratio into Wednesday's matchup against the Rays in Tampa Bay.
Jul 4 - 10:28 PM
Yordano Ventura allowed two runs on six hits over seven innings but took the loss against the Mariners on Sunday.
Ventura allowed a Mike Zunino homer to lead off the seventh inning, which ended up being the difference in the game. The right-handed struck out six while walking two on the afternoon. The loss snapped his three-game winning streak, and despite pitching well overall he's 5-6 on the season. Ventura has a 3.20 ERA and 1.25 WHIP, and he'll try to get back in the win column against the Angels on Saturday.
Jun 22 - 5:44 PM
Yordano Ventura allowed three runs on eight hits over seven innings in Tuesday's win over the Tigers.
Ventura didn't have to be at the top of his game, as the Royals got to Tigers starter Max Scherzer for 10 runs before the end of the fifth inning. Ventura walked two and struck out four in the win. The 23-year-old is 5-5 with a 3.26 ERA and 1.25 WHIP through 13 starts. He'll look for his fourth straight win when he takes on the Mariners on Sunday.
Jun 17 - 10:41 PM
Yordano Ventura fired seven innings of one-run ball Wednesday in the Royals' 4-1 win over the Indians.
Ventura was sharp in the afternoon outing at home in Kansas City, scattering six hits without walking a batter. He struck out three. The 23-year-old right-hander boasts a 3.20 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and 63 strikeouts through his first 70 1/3 innings this season. He'll try to stay in a groove next week in Detroit.

Alex Gordon
Sidelined
Alex Gordon (wrist) will not participate in the All-Star Game.
Gordon was scratched from the Royals' lineup on Wednesday because of a sprained right wrist. The Royals are holding off on a DL decision for now, but we wouldn't be surprised if he misses the remainder of the first half at the very least.

Royals placed LHP Jason Vargas on the 15-day disabled list with appendicitis.
Vargas underwent an appendectomy on Thursday and could be out 3-4 weeks. Bruce Chen seems likely to take his rotation spot. Vargas, 31, owns a 3.31 ERA, 1.23 WHIP, and 82/29 K/BB ratio in 125 innings this season.

Luke Hochevar (elbow) hopes to resume throwing in September.
Hochevar underwent Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery in mid-March. The 30-year-old right-handed setup man might be ready for Opening Day 2015. He had a fantastic 2013 season, posting a 1.92 ERA, 0.83 WHIP, and 82/17 K/BB ratio in 70 1/3 innings.
