The Royals pitching cupboard is bare as **** so I get it but this is the type of guy where any thing you get should be considered a bonus not expected.
Their pitching going into next year looks really really bad so hey I understand.

He's 25. He was the Rangers 1st round pick and there 4th ranked prospect in 2017 before he had to have TJ. He tore the fix in rehab, so had to have it repaired. It's now repaired and he has as much a chance of tearing it as anyone that's come back from TJ.
We traded a half season rental relief pitcher for him and a lottery ticket. What's the risk?
This is something id definitely say oh yeah this guy is fine.
