Jason Adam was a fifth round draft pick of the Kansas City Royals back in 2010. He was traded away earlier in his career, but things came full circle as he re-joined the organization during the 2017 season, and debuted in the majors in 2018.
The Royals have now shrunk their camp down by another player as Opening Day nears. Adam pitched quite a bit out of the bullpen last season, but the improvements to the bullpen this off-season left him without a true role, or potential role, on the pitching staff.
Multi-Trade Player
This is the second time that Adam has been dealt in his career, both times by the Kansas City Royals.
