Davies was outrighted to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday. The move doesn't come as much of a surprise after Davies was designated for assignment Monday. He'll likely slot into the Triple-A starting rotation and could serve as depth going forward if the big league club suffers any injuries to the pitching staff.

Davies was designated for assignment Monday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. It was a brief big league stint for Davies as he had just been called up Sunday.

The Royals cut ties with Davies on Wednesday, mostly because of his continued failures in the big leagues. But there's little doubt now that the arrest also played a factor.
