Witt Returns as Royals Surge | Kansas City Royals News
Description
Bobby Witt Jr. is back on the field for the Royals, activated from the injured list before Tuesday’s game after missing time with back tightness—he’s been a force, leading the AL in steals and crushing homers. To make room, the Royals called up pitcher Jose Cuas while sending Matt Strahm and Andrew Velazquez to waivers; Strahm struggled badly in his second stint, Velazquez barely saw any action. Witt’s return is huge—he’s one of only a handful of players ever to steal 30+ bases in each of his first five seasons, joining legends like Rickey Henderson and Ichiro. A three-time All-Star, two-time Gold Glove winner, and reigning Platinum Glove champ, Witt is a true elite player—and the Royals’ season just got a lot more exciting.
