The Kansas City Royals have signed right-handed pitcher Eli Morgan to a minor league deal after he posted a strong 1.93 ERA in 32 games with the Cleveland Guardians in 2024, despite dealing with elbow issues that limited his appearances. Originally drafted by Cleveland in 2017, Morgan transitioned from starter to reliever, achieving notable success in 2022. His elbow injury persisted into the next season, leading to setbacks and a non-tender by the Cubs. The Royals are enhancing their bullpen depth, having also signed veterans Héctor Neris and Aaron Sanchez.
