He posted a 2.32 ERA and 1.02 WHIP across 54.1 innings in Omaha, tallying three wins. The 25-year-old is now shielded from the Rule 5 Draft in December.

• Royals' Noah Cameron: Excellent run at Triple-A

  09/25/2024 • By RotoWire

  Cameron has a 2.32 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 62:11 K:BB in 54.1 innings through nine starts for Triple-A Omaha. A 25-year-old lefty with a plus changeup, Cameron's sparkling numbers at Triple-A likely oversell his MLB potential, but he should get a chance to help the big-league rotation next season. Cameron had a 3.63 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 87 strikeouts in 74.1 innings through 16 starts at Double-A. His fastball ranges from 90-94 mph and he'll evenly mix in his cutter, changeup and curveball to keep hitters guessing. He will need to be added to the 40-man roster this offseason as Rule 5 draft protection.

• Royals' Noah Cameron: Racking up K's at High-A

  Cameron has a 4.34 ERA, 3.46 FIP, 1.10 WHIP and 47 strikeouts in 29 innings across six starts for High-A Quad Cities. There is a pretty big gap between Cameron's 4.34 ERA and his 1.92 xFIP, as he is striking out batters at almost a 40 percent clip while walking batters at a 6.7 percent rate. The 23-year-old southpaw was drafted in the seventh round of the 2021 Draft while he was recovering from Tommy John surgery, and he had a successful pro debut last year. As an older lefty with a plus changeup and above-average control, High-A isn't much of a test for Cameron. His low-90s fastball velocity caps his upside, but he has starter traits and an excellent pro track record.
