James Shields yielded two runs in seven innings Friday in a no-decision against the Astros.
Shields allowed nine hits and three walks while fanning six. He has gone at least seven innings while allowing two runs or fewer in six out of his last seven starts, but he doesn't have any wins to show for it. That's right. Zero. He has a tough matchup against the Tigers next week, so hopefully there's finally some run support in his future.
Jun 7 - 11:28 PM
James Shields lost a fourth straight start after giving up six runs in six innings against the Cardinals on Monday.
It's four straight losses, but this is the first one that's his fault; it's just the second time all year that he's allowed more than three runs. Shields has been everything the Royals hoped he'd be when they gave up Wil Myers to get him. The rest of the team, however, has some problems.
May 27 - 6:08 PM
James Shields allowed just two runs in seven innings but took the loss against the Astros on Wednesday.
Shields committed one mistake, a two-run homer by J.D. Martinez, but the Astros pitchers made it stand up to saddle Shields with his fifth loss. He was otherwise stellar, allowing seven hits while striking out seven on the night. Despite the 2-5 record, Shields has been as good as advertised for the Royals this season, now owning a 2.47 ERA with a 0.96 WHIP. He will get the Cardinals next.
May 22 - 11:10 PM
James Shields took a complete-game loss after giving up two runs in eight innings Friday against the A's.
Shields struck out nine, matching his season high. Unfortunately, he gave up his fifth and sixth homers of the season. Shields dropped to 2-4 on the season. The Royals have scored a total of five runs in his four losses.

Jarrod Dyson (ankle) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.
The Royals are targeting 25-30 at-bats for the outfielder before activating him, so he should be in line for a return early next week. Dyson has been out since mid-May with a right ankle sprain.

Danny Duffy
D.L.
Danny Duffy (elbow) allowed six runs on seven hits and two walks over just 2 1/3 innings in his first rehab start for Triple-A Omaha on Monday.
Duffy posted a 4.22 ERA and struck out 15 over 10 2/3 innings in his first three rehab starts, but he was obviously off in this one. The left-hander is on track to return in late June but will need to improve his results before the Royals add him to the big league rotation.

Felipe Paulino
D.L.
Felipe Paulino (elbow) was scratched from a scheduled rehab start on Sunday due to back stiffness.
The Royals are viewing it as a minor setback, as Paulino could be ready to return to the hill on Wednesday. "We want to see him have a good side session and a functional return on fielding his position," trainer Nick Kenney said, "for us to feel comfortable with him pitching on Wednesday." Paulino tossed five scoreless inning in his first rehab outing last week.
