I am posting Nate Adcock’s custom card today because I believe he made the team today. He was a rule 5 pick by the Royals meaning he has to be on the Royals roster all season or he will be offered back to his former team. Needing to know whether Adcock was worth the risk or not, the Royals started Adcock today. His line was extremely good. 3 innings, 3 hits, no walks, no strikeouts, no runs.
He has had the kind of spring the Royals had to be hoping for. He won’t be a vital part of the Royals but will fill an important early relief bullpen role and possibly be a swingman. I have a lot more hope for this rule 5 pick than the other rule 5 pick now trying to make the team. The Royals are trying left-handed relief pitcher Robert Fish, he is one of four or five lefties with a chance to make the team.
