Royals get long-awaited return of key high-leverage reliever, DFA versatile veteran

Amid the chaos of the upcoming trade deadline, with rumors flying about how the Kansas City Royals might improve their current roster in the coming days, they received an internal upgrade on Friday ahead of a crucial series against their AL Central rivals and fellow Wild Card competitors in the Cleveland Guardians.

The Royals announced Friday that Hunter Harvey would finally be making his return to the rotation after an over three-month spell on the injured list.

While Jonathan Bowlan was the active roster casualty for Harvey's arrival, the more noteworthy corresponding move was Cavan Biggio being designated for assignment to make room on the 40-man roster.
