The Royals have released left-hander Bruce Chen, MLB Daily Dish’s Chris
Cotillo reports (Twitter link). Chen, 37, was designated for assignment by
the team last week.
The veteran had a 7.45 ERA over 48 1/3 innings with the Royals this season,
making seven starts and six relief appearances. ERA predictors aren’t
usually friendly to a low-strikeout, contact pitcher such as Chen, though his
current FIP (4.57), xFIP (4.64) and SIERA (4.43) indicate that he has been
rather unlucky to produce that 7.45 total this season.
Chen re-signed with the Royals last winter, inking a one-year, $3.25MM deal
with a $5.5MM mutual option for 2015 (with a $1MM buyout). He has pitched
for 10 different teams over his 16-year career and it’s possible he could
turn his total up to 11 if a club is on the lookout for an experienced
southpaw as bullpen depth down the stretch. Chen is only a year removed from
a 2013 season that saw him post a 3.27 ERA over 121 innings for Kansas City.
