The Royals officially released Kyle Davies earlier this week following poor performances in parts of five seasons. Acquired from the Braves in exchange for half of Octavio Dotel‘s 2007 season, Davies seemed like a solid return. He threw hard, complemented the heater with a decent yet underwhelming curve, and was not yet eligible for arbitration. In other words, he was exactly...

RHP Kyle Davies was finally released today by the Kansas City Royals.  The move has been years overdue. The right-hander was recently placed on the 15-day DL with reoccurring shoulder problems resulting in continuing ineffectiveness as a MLB starter.

Royals starter Kyle Davies exited Monday's game against the Indians with what was reported as interior soreness of the right shoulder after walking three of the four batters he faced in the first inning.

Something to think about briefly: Starter Kyle Davies joined the Royals in 2007, coming over as one of ‘Dayton’s guys’ from the Atlanta Braves. Now 27 years old, Davies has yet to win 10 games in any one year. His ERA has been above 5.00 each of the past two seasons. Davies is carrying an embarassing 7.08 ERA in 2011. He picked up his 5th loss already on Tuesday...

It starts with two shutout innings against the 2010 American League champions.  Three strikeouts scattered around one hit.  No walks. The next time out, it’s another two innings, with two runs surrendered and yes, a walk.  But just the one and after four early innings, you’re looking at a four-to-one K/BB ratio.  The two runs are bad, but overall it’s a 4.50...
