  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Lifts eighth homer

    Pasquantino went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 3-1 win over the Giants.

    Neither team could score over seven innings from starters Kris Bubic and Robbie Ray, but Pasquantino took advantage once the Giants went to their bullpen. He went deep against Tyler Rogers in the eighth inning to open the scoring. Pasquantino has hit safely in six of his last seven games, going 8-for-28 (.286) with two homers and four RBI in that span. For the season, the first baseman is up to a .228/.272/.392 slash line with eight homers, 28 RBI, 17 runs scored and five stolen bases across 48 contests. He's had a strong May at the plate as he works to overcome a slow start in 2025.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Homer, three hits in win

    Pasquantino went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and a double in Sunday's 11-6 win over the Orioles.

    Pasquantino fell a triple short of the cycle Sunday, highlighted by a solo homer in the seventh inning. The first baseman has been heating up over his past 10 games, slugging four home runs with eight RBI and seven runs scored. While his overall slash line remains underwhelming at .197/.252/.386 across 143 plate appearances, he's provided some pop with six long balls and 22 RBI on the year.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Belts fourth homer in win

    Pasquantino went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's win over the Rays.

    Pasquantino has mostly struggled to begin the season, but he's now belted a homer in two of his past four outings. Over 99 at-bats in April, the first baseman hit just .172 with three long balls, two doubles, 14 RBI and eight runs scored. Despite the slow start, Pasquantino continues to regularly occupy a premium spot in Kansas City's batting order, which should offer him plenty of RBI chances.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Goes yard in Saturday's win

    Pasquantino went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Astros.

    Pasquantino took Framber Valdez deep in the fifth inning for what ended up being the last run of the game. This was Pasquantino's third straight game with a hit -- he's 3-for-10 with two RBI and three runs scored in that span. The first baseman is still working out of the early doldrums, batting .188 with a .586 OPS, three homers, 16 RBI, eight runs scored, three doubles and a triple over 27 contests. He continues to hold down a near-everyday role, splitting his time between first base and designated hitter, depending on where Salvador Perez is playing.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Homer, three hits in win

    Pasquantino went 3-for-4 with solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Guardians.

    Pasquantino opened the scoring with a solo home run in the fourth inning and notched his first three-hit effort of the season. On the year, the first baseman is hitting .212 with two homers, 11 RBI and three runs scored across 58 plate appearances. He also owns a 4:7 BB:K so far, a promising sign that his batting average should trend upward as the season progresses.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Absent from Tuesday's lineup

    Pasquantino is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Milwaukee.

    Pasquantino started each of the Royals' first four games of the season, although he's been limited to designated hitter duty as he comes back from a hamstring injury. MJ Melendez will be the club's DH on Tuesday, while Cavan Biggio will cover first base.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Homers on Opening Day

    Pasquantino went 2-for-4 with a double and a three-run homer in Thursday's loss against Cleveland.

    Pasquantino suffered a Grade 1-plus right hamstring strain just five days ago, but he was able to start at DH on Thursday and started the scoring with a three-run shot during the third inning, He may not play first base for a few games, but his injury certainly didn't limit him at the plate Opening Day.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: In lineup for Thursday's opener

    Pasquantino (hamstring) will start at designated hitter and bat third in Thursday's season opener versus the Guardians.

    Pasquantino suffered a Grade 1-plus right hamstring strain just five days ago, but he made enough improvement that the Royals are comfortable with him at least playing in a non-defensive role on Opening Day. Cavan Biggio will occupy Pasquantino's usual position at first base.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Slated for full workout Wednesday

    Royals manager Matt Quatraro said that Pasquantino (hamstring) will go through a full workout Wednesday before being re-evaluated Thursday morning, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Pasquantino -- who is dealing with a Grade 1-plus right hamstring strain -- did some cage work Tuesday and came out of it well. He has a chance of avoiding the injured list and playing Opening Day, but the Royals will wait to make a decision until they finalize their roster Thursday. If Pasquantino is in Thursday's lineup, it could be at designated hitter as the Royals look to ease some of the stress on his hamstring. An absence for Pasquantino would leave the Royals with Mark Canha, Salvador Perez and Cavan Biggio as options at first base.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Has Grade 1-plus hamstring strain

    Pasquantino has been diagnosed with a Grade 1-plus right hamstring strain, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

    Pasquantino -- who suffered the injury during Saturday's Cactus League game -- said Monday that he plans on playing in Thursday's opener, but he added, "that's just me speaking as a player." The ultimate decision lies with the Royals, and they may very well choose to hold Pasquantino out. He will not play in the team's final two exhibition games Monday and Tuesday but will hit in the batting cage Monday and on the field Tuesday. If Pasquantino isn't ready for the start of the season, Mark Canha and Salvador Perez represent options at first base for Kansas City.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Held out of lineup Monday

    Pasquantino (hamstring) is not in the lineup for Monday's Cactus League contest versus the Rangers, Jaylon T. Thompson of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Pasquantino strained his right hamstring during Saturday's Cactus League game. While the first baseman has downplayed the injury, he might need to show he can play in the Royals' final exhibition tilt Tuesday before being cleared to play Opening Day. If Pasquantino isn't ready to play at the start of the season, the Royals could use Salvador Perez and/or Mark Canha at first base.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Strains hamstring Saturday

    Pasquantino was diagnosed with a right hamstring strain after making an early exit from Saturday's Cactus League game, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

    Pasquantino will undergo further evaluation Sunday to determine the severity of his injury, but he said after Saturday's game that he feels fine and doesn't believe his performance will be affected by his hamstring. The Royals' medical staff ultimately has the final say, however, so the first baseman's availability for Opening Day will be determined by the results of Sunday's tests. If Pasquantino is unable to play, recent acquisition Mark Canha may step in to cover first base.
