According to J.J. Cooper of Baseball America, 2012 first round pick Kyle Zimmer will be shut down for the rest of 2013 due to shoulder stiffness suffered in his last start. According to Bob Dutton, the Royals are denying Cooper’s report but conceding that with the time left on the year, it is a “likely” option.
