| 8/28/25 | Royals Sign Ex-Yankees 6-Year Veteran To Bolster Pitching Depth. As they continue to push for a wild card spot, the Kansas City Royals keep adding more pitching depth. It's been an interesting year for Royals minor-league signings. The list includes former big major league names like Rich Hill, Dallas Keuchel, and Michael Fulmer, all of whom have since left the organization. On Wednesday, the Royals signed another hurler to a minor league deal, who certainly doesn't have the name recognition of those others, but has pitched for two other American League contenders already this season.

Michael Fulmer was released earlier in August, and has since signed with the Seattle Mariners. Late last week, Dallas Keuchel was the next to follow.

| 8/20/25 | 21-Year MLB Veteran Rich Hill To Appear In Charity Game Weeks After Royals DFA. Forty-five-year-olds appear in charity and old-timers baseball games all the time, but most of them haven't pitched in the big leagues less than a month prior. The Kansas City Royals designated 21-year Major League Baseball veteran Rich Hill for assignment on July 29, only a week after he was selected from Triple-A. He made only two appearances in the big leagues after spending nearly three months in the minors waiting for an opportunity. The Oldtime Baseball Game is a Massachusetts summer institution. It began in 1994, and every year, players from Boston area college teams, former big-leaguers, and local celebrities gather at St. Peter's Field in North Cambridge, Mass. to play ball in old-school flannel uniforms and raise money for charity.

| 7/28/25 | While former Red Sox pitcher Rich Hill makes another comeback, Daniel Bard calls it a career. O'Brien was in the stands when Bard pitched his first game at Fenway Park in 2009. Along with being good pitchers — in much different ways — Bard and Hill are first-class people who proved to be excellent examples of perseverance. Bard, 40, was one of the best relievers in baseball until his career went awry because of the yips starting late in the 2011 season. It got worse when the Sox tried to make him a starter in 2012.
