RYAN VERDUGO RUMORS & GOSSIP

Royals notebook: Verdugo placed on 40-man roster

The Royals added left-handed pitcher Ryan Verdugo, whom they acquired earlier this month, to their 40-man roster Friday before the 11 p.m. deadline. The move protects Verdugo from selection in the Rule 5 draft, which is Dec. 8 at the winter meetings in Dallas, and leaves the Royals with one available spot on their 40-man roster.

Analyzing the Giants and Royals Trade
