Adams signed a minor-league contract with the Rockies on Monday that includes an invitation to spring training, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Heyman says Adams will earn a salary of $740,000 if in the big leagues. The 29-year-old missed the 2022 season following Tommy John surgery and came back in 2023 to post a 3.86 ERA and 21:10 K:BB over 32.2 innings at Triple-A Albuquerque in the Rockies organization. He will compete for a gig in the Rockies bullpen but will probably begin 2024 back at Albuquerque.

Adams was outrighted to Triple-A Omaha on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Adams made six relief appearances during his first season with the Royals in 2020, but he was inefficient once again, allowing nine earned runs on 15 hits and no walks while striking out six over 8.2 innings. He'll be cast off the 40-man roster to make room for several prospects who will be protected from the Rule 5 draft.

Adams was recalled by the Royals on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Adams made just one appearance in his previous stint on the Royals' roster, allowing three runs on four hits while recording just five outs. He now owns an 8.57 ERA in 34.2 major-league innings, meaning he's unlikely to fill anything but a low-leverage relief role during his time with the club. Ian Kennedy (calf) landed on the injured list in a corresponding move.

Adams was optioned to the alternate training site Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old was recalled over the weekend and struggled in his team debut Monday, allowing three runs on four hits across 1.2 innings. Adams could rejoin the big-league roster later in the year, but for now he'll participate in workouts at the alternate site.

Adams allowed three runs on four hits across 1.2 innings pitched in Monday's loss to the Cardinals. He struck out one.

EDGE Analysis

Adams was making his season debut after being recalled Sunday. He came on to pitch the sixth inning and immediately gave up a single to Brad Miller and two-run homer to Paul Goldschmidt. He retired the next three Cardinals in order but gave up another run before being pulled with two outs in the seventh.

The Royals recalled Adams from their alternate training site Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Adams will provide Kansas City with a fresh multi-inning arm out of the bullpen after the Royals needed four relievers to cover the final five innings of Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Twins. The 26-year-old right-hander, who made 13 relief appearances for the Yankees in 2019, has yet to make his Kansas City debut.

Adams was optioned to the Royals' alternate training site Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Adams' shuffle between the major-league roster and alternate camp continues. The right-hander was called up by Kansas City on Saturday but will be optioned for the second time in three days. He began the season on the injured list for an undisclosed reason and still hasn't made an appearance in the majors this year.

Adams was recalled from the Royals' alternate training site Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Adams was optioned to the Royals' alternate training site Friday, but he'll rejoin the active roster just one day later after Nick Heath (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list. The right-hander spent the start of the season on the injured list with an undisclosed injury and should pitch out of lower-leverage situations for Kansas City.

Adams (undisclosed) was reinstated from the injured list and optioned to the Royals' alternate training site Friday.

EDGE Analysis

An undisclosed issue sent Adams to the injured list to start the year, though he wasn't particularly likely to break camp with the team even if healthy. He's thrown just 33 career big-league innings, struggling to an 8.18 ERA.

Adams (undisclosed) was placed on the injured list Thursday, Jeffrey Flanagan of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear what Adams is dealing with or how long it will keep him sidelined. He figures to fill a low-leverage relief role once he's healthy.
