Lands on injured list Staumont was placed on the injured list Thursday for unspecified reasons.
Impact No designation was provided with the move, so there's a possibility Staumont was placed on the COVID-19 injured list. If that's the case, he'll be eligible to be activated once he clears the health and safety protocols. Otherwise he'll be sidelined for at least the next 10 days.

Picks up ninth hold Staumont allowed a run on one hit and one walk with one strikeout in two-thirds of an inning versus Houston on Wednesday.
Impact Staumont picked up a hold in his appearance, though the Royals didn't end up holding onto the lead. Across 10.1 innings in August, Staumont has allowed four runs on eight hits and two walks while racking up 13 strikeouts, a win and five holds. He's logged a 3.42 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 57:21 K:BB in 50 innings overall, in addition to five saves and nine holds while filling a versatile high-leverage role.

Snags win Tuesday Staumont (2-2) struck out three and didn't allow a baserunner in 1.1 innings to earn the win versus the Yankees on Tuesday.
Impact The right-hander was called upon to relieve Domingo Tapia to end the sixth inning, and Kansas City pulled ahead in the bottom of the sixth. Staumont has been solid recently with just three hits allowed and seven strikeouts in a scoreless streak at 4.2 innings. He owns a 3.18 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 52:20 K:BB through 45.1 innings. While he's seen late-inning work at times (five saves, five holds), he's typically entered games earlier in recent weeks.

Yields homer Sunday Staumont gave up a run on one hit and a walk with one strikeout in one inning versus Toronto on Sunday.
Impact The 27-year-old was the first reliever in the game after Brad Keller (back) exited after three innings. Staumont wasn't great, giving up a solo home run to Santiago Espinal, which ended his three-inning scoreless streak. The right-hander has seen less high-leverage work lately, with two holds and a win in 10 appearances since the start of the July. He has a 3.54 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 45:20 K:BB in 40.2 innings overall.

Picks up win Staumont (1-2) pitched a perfect inning and struck out two, earning the win Friday versus Baltimore.
Impact Staumont worked the sixth inning and was awarded the win after starter Danny Duffy was removed as a precaution after four innings. Through 35.2 innings this year, Staumont has a 3.53 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 41:18 K:BB. He's added five saves and three holds, but he hasn't picked up a save since May 19, as manager Mike Matheny seems to prefer Greg Holland for closing duties.

Takes loss Monday Staumont (0-2) allowed a run on one hit and one walk with one strikeout in two innings, taking the loss versus Boston on Monday.
Impact Staumont worked the fifth and sixth innings. He got through the former without yielding a run, but Hunter Renfroe belted a solo home run to give Boston its first lead of the game, which held up. Through seven outings in June, Staumont has yielded four runs in 8.1 innings, including two homers. He's posted a solid 3.19 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 34:17 K:BB across 31 innings. While he's picked up five saves and two holds, manager Mike Matheny seems to prefer Greg Holland for closing duties lately, although Kansas City's ninth-inning is still very much a committee situation.

Logs 1.1 scoreless innings Staumont allowed a hit and a walk with one strikeout in 1.1 scoreless innings in Wednesday's 6-5 loss to the Yankees.
Impact In five outings since he's returned from a knee injury, Staumont has not logged a save, hold or decision. He's given up three runs on six hits and two walks across 5.1 innings in that span. The 27-year-old saw time as the closer earlier in the season, but it appears Greg Holland -- who blew a save Wednesday -- has moved ahead of him in the pecking order for now. Kyle Zimmer is also a possibility for saves, although he's seen a more versatile role this year.

Scoreless inning in return Staumont (knee) pitched a scoreless inning, allowing one hit and striking out one in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Minnesota.
Impact Staumont spent the minimum 10 days on the injured list while recovering from a knee sprain. The right-hander has pitched to a 2.66 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 26:13 K:BB in 23.2 innings this season. He's added five saves and two holds, so he should be in the mix for high-leverage work, including ninth-inning looks, going forward.

Activated from injured list Staumont (knee) was activated from the injured list Sunday, Josh Vernier of 610 Sports reports.
Impact Staumont was placed on the 10-day injured list with a knee sprain May 28, with the move being backdated to May 26. He'll now rejoin the Royals after missing just the minimum 10 days, though it's not clear if he'll carry on as the preferred closer option immediately.
