Royals optioned LHP Chris Dwyer to Triple-A Omaha.
Dwyer gave up three runs (two earned) over 1 2/3 innings in his lone appearance this spring. The 24-year-old southpaw had a 5.89 ERA between Double- and Triple-A last season while dealing with a thyroid condition. The Royals added him to the 40-man roster in November, so they clearly aren't ready to give up on him yet. Mar 12 - 12:21 PM

The 22-year-old has amassed 128 strikeouts in 110.2 innings to go with a respectable 3.09 ERA. He is expected to start this season in Double-A or Triple-A.
