Scott Barlow Recalled to Kansas City

The Kansas City Royals announced a transaction on Tuesday that affects their Triple-A affiliate Omaha Storm Chasers roster prior to this evening's series-opening matchup versus the Memphis Redbirds at Werner Park.

Right-hander Scott Barlow has been recalled to Kansas City. In two starts with the Storm Chasers this season, the 25-year-old has compiled a 1-0 record and 0.90 ERA (1 ER/10.0 IP) along with 12 strikeouts. His 0.90 earned-run average ranked seventh in the Pacific Coast League entering play today.
Barlow would make his Major League debut should he appear in a game with the Royals. He becomes the third member of the 2018 Storm Chasers roster promoted to Kansas City, and would become the first to make his Major League debut with the Royals in 2018. The right-hander in 111 career minor league outings (105 starts) has tallied a 30-30 clip and 4.10 ERA (246 ER/540.0 IP), adding 509 punchouts.
Following this transaction, Omaha's current roster stands at 24 active players. A revised roster is attached.
The Storm Chasers are set to begin a seven-game homestand with a four-game set versus Memphis this evening. First pitch scheduled for 6:35 p.m. CT. LHP Jonathan Dziedzic (0-1, 1.64) is expected to get the nod for Omaha, with Memphis slated to counter with LHP Austin Gomber (1-0, 4.22).
