July 14, 2025 1:33 PM : The Royals placed Lorenzen on the 15-day injured list Monday with a left oblique strain.
Analysis: Lorenzen was scratched ahead of his final scheduled start of the first half this past weekend due to what was referred to as an illness at the time, but the right-hander is apparently dealing with an oblique strain. The Royals haven't provided word on the severity of the injury, making it uncertain whether Lorenzen will be ready for activation when first eligible July 26. Lorenzen finished the first half with a 4.61 ERA with a 1.30 WHIP over 99.2 innings.
