Wade Davis: Elects free agency
Wade Davis (shoulder) elected free agency Wednesday.Davis finished the 2021 campaign on the Royals' 60-day injured list due to right shoulder inflammation, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him available for spring training in 2022. However, the right-hander's struggles continued in 2021, and he's now posted an 8.33 ERA and 1.73 WHIP in 95 appearances across the last three seasons.

Royals' Wade Davis: Done for season
The Kansas City Royals transferred Wade Davis (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.Davis' move to the 60-day IL officially spells an end to his season, even though he likely won't need the full two months to make a full recovery from right shoulder inflammation. Before being shut down with the injury last week, Davis went 0-3 with two saves, two holds, a 6.75 ERA and 1.48 WHIP in 42.2 innings across 40 relief appearances.

Royals' Wade Davis: In good form
Wade Davis has allowed just two hits and two walks while striking out five in his last seven innings.That scoreless stretch spans eight appearances, and he's collected one save in that time. Davis hasn't been considered for much high-leverage work this year -- he has two saves, one hold and a blown save in 30 appearances -- but he's pitched well enough lately to warrant such work. His season numbers paint a less rosy outlook, as he has a 6.34 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 27:13 K:BB in 32.2 innings.

Royals' Wade Davis: Collects second save
Wade Davis struck out the only batter he faced to record his second save of the season in a 9-8 win over the Tigers on Saturday.Greg Holland got the call to begin the ninth inning with the Kansas City Royals holding a three-run lead, but after he fell apart, Davis had to bail him out by fanning Jeimer Candelario to end the game. Josh Staumont has worked the eighth while Scott Barlow has pitched on three of the previous four days, which left Davis to pick up the pieces. The 35-year-old has put together two straight scoreless appearances since returning from the IL after the All-Star break, but his 7.67 ERA and 1.56 WHIP on the year don't suggest he's going to see regular high-leverage work.

Royals' Wade Davis: Clean inning in return
Wade Davis pitched a perfect ninth inning in Sunday's 5-0 loss to Baltimore.Davis had been out with a right forearm strain since June 29 prior to being activated Saturday.

The right-hander owns a 7.76 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 22:11 K:BB across 26.2 innings, but he could work his way into the closer committee if he can pitch well now that he's healthy.
