Avoids arbitration McArthur (elbow) signed a one-year contract with the Royals on Thursday, avoiding arbitration.

Impact The financial details of McArthur's new deal are unknown, but the 28-year-old will officially remain with the Royals after missing the entire 2025 campaign while recovering from an elbow surgery he underwent last winter and a follow-up procedure he received in July. Once he's fully recovered, he'll likely take on a middle-relief role in the big-league bullpen.

Begins throwing program McArthur (elbow) has begun a throwing program, MLB.com reports.

Impact McArthur missed the entire 2025 season following surgery last offseason to address an olecranon fracture in his right elbow. He required a follow-up procedure in July to remove one of the two screws inserted into the elbow and only just recently was cleared to throw again. McArthur is scheduled for a follow-up appointment in mid-November to make sure his elbow is healing as expected.
