  • Royals' Nick Pratto: Optioned to Triple-A

    The Royals optioned Pratto to Triple-A Omaha on Friday.

    While there's no corresponding move yet, it will presumably be Adam Frazier returning from the bereavement list. Pratto was up with the big club only for a few days and didn't make an appearance.

  • Royals' Nick Pratto: Summoned by Royals

    Pratto was called up from Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday.

    Pratto will get his first taste of MLB action this season after slashing .230/.315/.378 with seven homers in 54 games at Omaha. With Adam Frazier headed to the bereavement list and Hunter Renfroe (toe) pushed to the IL, Pratto should serve primarily as a reserve first baseman but could see some action in the outfield.

  • Royals' Nick Pratto: Optioned to Triple-A

    The Royals optioned Pratto to Triple-A Omaha on Friday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

    If decisions were made strictly on spring performance, Pratto would have made the club, as he slashed a robust .421/.476/.816 with four home runs. First base, the corner outfield spots and designated hitter are spoken for with the Royals though, so he'll head back to Omaha where he'll play every day.

  • Royals' Nick Pratto: Facing uphill battle

    Pratto is not projected to make the Royals' roster, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

    Pratto is blocked at first base by Vinnie Pasquantino and doesn't have enough experience in the outfield yet to be a realistic option there, especially with the competition for the extra outfielders expected to be strong. Nelson Velazquez is also expected to be the primary designated hitter, and Nick Loftin, who is also not included in Rogers' projection, offers more infield versatility. It's an uphill battle ahead for Pratto, who slashed a meager .232/.307/.353 with seven home runs and 35 RBI last year.

  • Royals' Nick Pratto: Returns from IL

    Pratto (groin) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Friday.

    A left groin strain, plus a minor setback in his recovery, has kept Pratto out since late July, but he'll now return to the active roster and take the place of Matt Beaty, who was optioned to Triple-A Omaha in a corresponding move. Pratto slashed .214/.340/.381 across 50 plate appearances during his rehab assignment and figures to slide back into an everyday role now that he's healthy.

  • Royals' Nick Pratto: Begins rehab assignment

    Pratto (groin/hip) will begin a rehab assignment Wednesday with Triple-A Omaha.

    Pratto seems likely to return to the Royals' active major-league roster by early next week, assuming all goes well during his stint in the minors. The 24-year-old landed on the injured list July 28 with a left groin strain and encountered a bit of a hip issue last week, but he's ready now to get back into live games.

  • Royals' Nick Pratto: Nearing rehab assignment

    Pratto (groin/hip) is expected to resume his rehab assignment later this week, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

    Pratto recently suffered a "minor setback" in his recovery from the lower-half injury that sent him to the injured list in late July, but taking a few days off appears to have resolved the issue. He's slated to go through all baseball activities Tuesday. Barring any issues, Pratto should resume playing in minor-league games before the week comes to a close.

  • Royals' Nick Pratto: Minor setback on rehab assignment

    Royals manager Matt Quatraro said Friday that Pratto (groin) suffered a "minor setback" on his rehab assignment, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

    Pratto has returned to Kansas City and will be reevaluated Monday. While the setback has been deemed minor, it could still push Pratto's return back into early September. He's been on the shelf since late July with a left groin strain.

    Pratto (groin) is set to begin a minor-league rehab assignment Thursday with Triple-A Omaha.
