Moves back to alternate site The Royals optioned Newberry to their alternate training site Sunday. Impact Newberry mopped up in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Twins, recording the final seven outs while giving up no runs on a hit and two walks. Despite the solid showing, Newberry wasn't likely to be available for the next few days after tossing 35 pitches in the appearance, so the Royals will swap him out for a fresh arm in Chance Adams, who was recalled from the alternate site in a corresponding move.
