Royals' Cole Ragans: Punches out eight in loss
Ragans (2-2) took the loss against the Red Sox on Saturday, allowing four runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out eight over five innings.
Ragans gave up one run through the first four innings, but he was tagged for three more in the fifth on three consecutive RBI singles. He generated 14 whiffs on 95 pitches (65 strikes), and while he's recorded at least eight strikeouts in six of eight starts this season, he has also yielded at least four earned runs in three of his last four outings. Ragans has a 4.20 ERA and 1.23 WHIP over 40.2 innings, and his 65 strikeouts is tied with Garrett Crochet for second most in the American League behind Carlos Rodon (67). Ragans is lined up to face the Cardinals at home next weekend.

Royals' Cole Ragans: Dominant in second win
Ragans (2-1) picked up the win Monday against the White Sox, allowing three hits and two walks over five scoreless innings. He struck out 11.
The Kansas City southpaw showed no ill effects of his recent groin injury, stymying the lowly Chicago lineup in this 94-pitch outing. Ragans generated an impressive 17 whiffs to match his season high in strikeouts with 11. After allowing an unsightly nine runs over seven innings across his two previous starts, Ragans lowered his ERA from 4.40 to 3.79 with this performance. The left-hander is currently slated to make his next start against the Red Sox at home this weekend.

Royals' Cole Ragans: Set to start Monday
Ragans (groin) is scheduled to start Monday's game against the White Sox, Jaylon T. Thompson of The Kansas City Star reports.
The 27-year-old hasn't pitched since April 24 due to a groin strain, but he's poised to take the mound Monday after missing just one turn through the rotation. Ragans has surrendered nine runs in his past two starts, but he was dominant in his first four outings of the season with a 2.28 ERA and 34:4 K:BB across 23.2 innings.

Royals' Cole Ragans: Throwing bullpen session Friday
Ragans (groin) will throw a bullpen session Friday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
A mild left groin strain kept Ragans from making his scheduled start Wednesday versus the Rays, but as long as he gets through Friday's bullpen session without issue, he'll rejoin the Royals rotation Monday against the White Sox. Noah Cameron -- who started Wednesday in Ragans' place -- has already been sent back down to Triple-A Omaha, suggesting the club feels confident Ragans will be ready to go Monday, although Cameron could technically rejoin the big club that day if Ragans goes on the IL. However, all indications are that an IL stint will not be necessary for Ragans.

Royals' Cole Ragans: Missing start Wednesday
Royals manager Matt Quatraro said Ragans (groin) will not make his next scheduled start Wednesday at Tampa Bay, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
The Royals will call up lefty Noah Cameron from Triple-A Omaha to start Wednesday in place of Ragans. After being pulled from his start last Thursday against the Rockies after three innings, Ragans was diagnosed Friday with a mild left groin strain. Per Rogers, Ragans' groin strain has improved each day since he suffered the injury, so for now, he's expected to avoid the injured list. He could be ready to make his next start as soon as this weekend in Baltimore or early next week versus the White Sox in Kansas City.

Royals' Cole Ragans: Dealing with mild strain
Ragans was diagnosed with a mild left groin strain Friday, Jaylon T. Thompson of The Kansas City Star reports.
Ragans was pulled from his start Thursday after three innings due to his groin injury. Manager Matt Quatraro said Friday that the team will hold off on putting the left-hander on the injured list for now and instead wait a few days to see how he responds to treatment. Ragans is tentatively scheduled to make his next start Tuesday against the Rays and could avoid missing a turn through the rotation if his condition improves by then.

Royals' Cole Ragans: Leaves start with groin injury
Ragans was removed from his start Thursday against the Rockies due to groin tightness.
Ragans made it through just three innings in the first game of Thursday's twin bill, during which he surrendered four runs on three hits (including two homers) and two walks while punching out four batters. The Royals haven't offered any specifics on the severity of the left-hander's injury, so it's unknown if he'll be able to make his next scheduled start against the Rays next week, but he'll presumably undergo tests in the near future to determine his availability.

Royals' Cole Ragans: Takes first loss
Ragans (1-1) took the loss Friday against the Tigers after giving up five earned runs on six hits and three walks while striking out eight batters across four-plus innings.
Pitching at an 18 K/9 pace typically indicates a strong performance from a pitcher, but that was just about the only positive thing Ragans had going for him Friday. He squandered an early lead by allowing an RBI single in the second inning and began pitching from behind after giving up a solo shot to Andy Ibanez in the fourth. Ragans came back out for the start of the fifth frame but was quickly pulled after allowing the first three batters to reach base, all of whom eventually came around to score. The swing-and-miss specialist now carries a 3.58 ERA following his tough outing, though he should have a good chance to bounce back during his next start against a Rockies lineup that strikes out 10.8 times per game.

Ragans (1-0) allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits over 7.2 innings Sunday, striking out 10 and earning a win over Cleveland.
Ragans stumbled in the second inning, giving up an RBI double to Daniel Schneemann, who would come around to score on an error. After that, Ragans was dialed in and retired 18 of the next 19 batters he faced. He forced 20 whiffs and has generated at least 16 in three straight outings. The 27-year-old is sporting a 2.28 ERA with a terrific 34:4 K:BB through four starts. Ragans' next start is expected to be in Detroit.

Royals' Cole Ragans: Dominates in no-decision
Ragans did not factor into the decision in Tuesday's win over the Twins. He allowed one run on four hits while striking out 11 across six innings.
Ragans dominated right out of the gate Tuesday, punching out nine of the first 17 batters faced and striking out the side in the third frame. His only blemish came in the fifth inning, when he gave up an RBI single. While the Twins' offense wasn't able to generate enough runs for him to earn the win, it was Ragans' second quality start in a row. The 27-year-old southpaw generated 18 whiffs and 15 first-pitch strikes, and he has logged 21 punchouts over his last two starts. Ragans' next start is slated for Sunday's series finale against the Guardians on the road, where he'll look to earn his first win of 2025.
