Impact Ragans stumbled in the second inning, giving up an RBI double to Daniel Schneemann, who would come around to score on an error. After that, Ragans was dialed in and retired 18 of the next 19 batters he faced. He forced 20 whiffs and has generated at least 16 in three straight outings. The 27-year-old is sporting a 2.28 ERA with a terrific 34:4 K:BB through four starts. Ragans' next start is expected to be in Detroit.

Impact Perez has had a slow start to the season as he's hitting .213 with two home runs and .606 OPS in 16 games. He's has a four-game hitting streak so perhaps this home run will get him going at the plate.

Evan Sisk - Called up from Triple-A The Royals recalled Sisk from Triple-A Omaha on Sunday.
Impact Sisk will make his MLB debut if/when he gets into a game with the Royals. Kansas City added the lefty reliever to its 40-man roster over the winter after he submitted a 1.56 ERA and 1.03 WHIP while striking out 81 batters in 57.2 innings with Omaha in 2024. He had gotten off to a nice start with Omaha this season, having yet to allow a run while striking out four over 4.2 innings.

Sam Long - On IL with elbow inflammation Long was placed on the 15-day IL due to left elbow inflammation, Anne Rogers of MLB.com.
Impact Long had struggled to begin the season, giving up 12 runs (10 earned) with five walks in seven innings. His injury was likely the cause for his poor start to the season.

Sam Long - On IL with elbow inflammation The Royals placed Long on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to left elbow inflammation.
Impact Long's move to the IL comes after he gave up three earned runs on two hits and two walks over one inning in relief in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Guardians. The elbow issue may have contributed to the left-hander's struggles this season, as he's turned in a 12.86 ERA and 2.43 WHIP across seven appearances. Kansas City called up southpaw Evan Sisk from Triple-A Omaha in a corresponding move.

Jonathan India - Not in lineup Sunday India (quadricep) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Impact India will head to the bench for the series finale after he was removed in the sixth inning of Saturday's 6-3 loss due to right quad tendinitis, an injury the 28-year-old disclosed that he had been nursing for a few days before aggravating it while running from first to third base on Vinnie Pasquantino's base hit, per Anne Rogers of MLB.com. After the game, India downplayed any concern about the issue and said that he expected to be available off the bench Sunday even if he didn't start, so he's seemingly being viewed as day-to-day. Maikel Garcia will pick up the start at third base and will serve as the Royals' leadoff hitter while India is out of the lineup.
