With both Greg Holland and Kelvin Herrera unavailable, Aaron Crow closed out Monday's win over the Twins with a scoreless ninth.

Crow issued a one-out walk but then induced a double-play ball to end it. He's third in line for saves in Kansas City, but obviously Herrera will get the first crack at the job should manager Ned Yost make a move.

Royals manager Ned Yost said that Aaron Crow will be used if a save situation arises Monday against the Astros.

Jonathan Broxton threw 29 pitches over two innings Sunday against the Cardinals, so Yost would like to stay away from using him. Yost is also considering using him as a pinch-hitter under National League rules. Greg Holland and Tim Collins are also unavailable Monday and could be used as emergency outfielders.

With Tuesday's game getting called due to rain, Aaron Crow pitched up a save by pitching a scoreless seventh inning against the A's.

The Royals likely intended to follow Crow with Greg Holland and Jonathan Broxton tonight, but they never got the chance. Crow struck out two in his inning. He's fanned six in three innings for the season, but he's also given up three runs.

Aaron Crow has been moved back to the bullpen.

Crow entered spring training with a legitimate shot at landing a spot in the Royals' starting rotation, but Joakim Soria's recent elbow issues have forced a return to relief for the 25-year-old right-hander. He is likely to function as a setup man this year for Kansas City.

Justin and Trevor discuss several different relief pitchers that are hoping to make their team's rotations, and we will tell you who has the best chance. Profiled are: Daniel Bard, Aroldis Chapman, Aaron Crow, Neftali Feliz and Chris Sale. Listen to the Audio.

Aaron Crow spun two scoreless relief innings Thursday, allowing no hits and one walk while striking out two in a win over the Rockies.

A nice first outing from the young right-hander. The Royals are giving Crow a shot at a rotation spot, though manager Ned Yost seems prepared to shift him back to the bullpen unless he really wows in camp. He's certainly off to a good start.
