The Royals outrighted Seabold (lat) to Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.

Seabold has the ability to decline the outright assignment and become a free agent. The right-hander missed the final three months of this season with a right lat strain, but he made some rehab appearances in September so he should have a relatively normal offseason. Seabold logged a 5.25 ERA, 1.71 WHIP and 20:11 K:BB over 24 innings in the majors in 2026.
