Dye

Dye was released by the Royals earlier this month and quickly latched on with the Rangers. The 26-year-old lefty will head to Triple-A Round Rock as extra organizational relief depth.

The Royals roster cutdown continued by casting Dye to minor league camp at the conclusion of Saturday’s Cactus League nightcap. The 25-year-old lefty reliever compiled a solid 2.60 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 73/19 K/BB ratio across 65 2/3 innings (40 appearances) last year between Double-A Northwest Arkansas and Triple-A Omaha. There’s a chance he gets a shot in the majors this season.
