Royals lose pitchers Cole Ragans and Seth Lugo to the 15-day injured list
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Kansas City Royals All-Star pitchers Cole Ragans and Seth Lugo were placed on the 15-day injured list on Saturday. Left-hander Ragans was moved to the list with a left groin strain and right-hander Lugo with a third finger sprain. Lefties Noah Cameron and Evan Sisk were recalled from Triple-A Omaha in corresponding moves. Cameron is slated to start for the Royals against the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday night. It would be the second start of his career. Ragans exited in the sixth inning of a 10-3 loss to the Cardinals on Saturday night with groin tightness. He had given up four runs on five hits with no walks and seven strikeouts in 5 1/3 innings before exiting the game. 'The groin feels fine today, not as stiff as when I came out of the game last night,' Ragans said. 'Just a couple of weeks of rest, continue throwing and get ready to go after the IL stint.' The 2024 All-Star selection is 2-3 with a 4.53 ERA in nine starts this season. Ragans skipped a start on April 30 with a left groin strain. 'With Ragans, we didn't know it was going to happen,' Royals manager Matt Quatraro said. 'We were hoping that taking the one out of the rotation would help, but we are going to need to take a little more measures and have him out on the IL.' Lugo, also a 2024 All-Star, has not pitched since May 11. He is 3-4 with a 3.02 ERA in nine starts this season. 'The finger feels better and has progressed pretty good so far,' Lugo said. 'At this point of the season, it is better to get healthy and be 100% out there than try to push through.' Lugo and Ragans finished second and fourth, respectively, in the American League Cy Young ballot last season. Lugo won an AL Gold Glove. 'We were hopeful we could be able to avoid (the injured list) with Lugo, but with the inflammation still there and essentially a sprained middle finger,' Quatraro said. 'We just need to get him symptom-free before he can start throwing again.'

Rafael Devers Under Fire For Refusing to Switch Positions After Teammate's Season-Ending Injury
In what is the second instance of this occurring in the past few months, the Boston Red Sox are unsuccessfully attempting to sell Rafael Devers on a new position. Following Tristan Casas' season-ending knee injury last week, the Red Sox asked three-time MLB All-Star Rafael Devers to switch from designated hitter to first base. An adjustment that, in theory, should be a seamless transition for Devers, who has played 951 career games at third base. Advertisement However, Devers not only opposed to the request but also told the media after the team's 5-0 win over the Texas Rangers on Thursday that he doesn't feel it's "appropriate" for the team to make it. 'I know I'm a ballplayer, but at the same time, they can't expect me to play every single position out there,' Devers said through his translator. 'In spring training, they talked to me and basically told me to put away my glove, that I wasn't going to play any other position but DH, so right now, I just feel like it's not an appropriate decision by them to ask me to play another position.' A response that has fans furious with Devers for his unwillingness to sacrifice with his team in need. Advertisement "All I'm saying is that this really hurts the guys who would 'do anything for the team' or 'I can play anywhere' just to see the field because they love the game," wrote one fan. "For $313 milli I'll be the (expletive) baseball if the Red Sox asked me to," added another. "Now that's a team player," joked another. "Sounds like a team player," commented one user. "U6 tee-ball type of attitude," said another. Boston Red Sox designated hitter Rafael Devers (11).Ken Blaze-Imagn Images Devers' lack of willingness to switch positions comes after the team essentially forced him to give up third base in spring training following their signing of AL Gold Glove third baseman Alex Bregman. While he was initially opposed to that idea, Devers has DH'd all 38 games he's played this season. Advertisement It's unclear how the team feels at this time, but clearly Devers isn't willing to compromise again. Related: Garrett Stubbs Comments on Catching Phillies No. 1 Prospect Andrew Painter
