Ken Harvey went from a guy who didn't make the 25-man roster as the Royals broke camp in Surprize, Ariz. to a guy who Pena inserted into the clean up spot on the day he was called up to the majors just three and half weeks into the season. I've been expecting this for the past ten days and given the Royals inability to score runs, I can't imagine what took them so long to bring Harvey up.
Not surprisingly, Harvey was tearing up the PCL with a .375 average (27-72) in 18 games, with 3 HR and 14 RBI. He hit safely in 16 of his 18 games—including 11 straight.
The Royals sent Shawn Camp to Omaha before the game today to make the roster spot available for Harvey.
