Royals Shake Up Roster

Before last night’s loss to Texas, the Kansas City Royals made four roster moves. Righthander Brian Meadows (1-6, 6.97 ERA) was optioned to Triple-A Omaha while catcher Sal Fasano was designated for assignment. To replace the pair on the roster, righthander Kris Wilson was recalled from Omaha and outfielder Endy Chavez had his contract purchased from Double-A Wichita. Chavez started last night in centerfield and cracked his first major league hit, a 7th-inning RBI single.
