Royals Keep Former Dodger Aboard for 2027 Season
The Kansas City Royals exercised former Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tony Gonsolin’s club option for the 2027 season.
Gonsolin, 32, made his debut with the Dodgers in 2019, and played with the team through 2025, serving on the 2020 World Series team.
When Did Tony Gonsolin Join the Royals?
Gonsolin signed with the Royals Aug. 13, heading straight to the injured list as he recovered from a surgery on his right elbow. He only made one appearance for the team after his late-season return to action, allowing five earned runs through 2.2 innings for a 16.88 ERA.
He also appeared in four minor-league contests while rehabbing from the injury, posting a 4.41 ERA through 16.1 innings pitched.
