## Resource

Royals’ bullpen takes another hit as pitcher Beck Way lands on the 15-day IL with back tightness, joining a growing roster of injured arms—now 13 players down, 9 of them pitchers. With key relievers like Mears and Estévez already sidelined, the team calls up 28-year-old Easton McGee from Omaha to fill the void, hoping his strike-throwing prowess can help stabilize the rotation during a brutal stretch.
