Royals' John Rave: Losing playing time to Caglianone
Rave is out of the lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader versus the Cardinals.
After getting called up from Triple-A Omaha on May 26, Rave started in right field in five of the Royals' ensuing seven games but went just 3-for-15 with a double and a walk. With the Royals summoning another left-handed-hitting corner outfielder in top prospect Jac Caglianone from Omaha earlier this week, Rave's window for regular playing time against right-handed pitching appears to have closed.

Royals' John Rave: Late add to lineup
Rave is now batting eighth and playing right field for Wednesday's game against the Reds.
Rave was initially scheduled to have the night off, but he's been pushed into the starting lineup after Michael Massey (ankle) was scratched. Rave hasn't logged a hit in eight plate appearances since being called up Monday.

Royals' John Rave: Absent from lineup
Rave isn't part of the Royals' starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds.
Rave started in both of Kansas City's games since being brought up from Triple-A Omaha on Monday, but he'll be on the bench to start Wednesday's contest. Rave went 0-for-6 with a walk and two strikeouts in those two appearances. Dairon Blanco will fill right field Wednesday.

Royals' John Rave: Joining big-league club
The Royals selected Rave's contract from Triple-A Omaha on Monday.
Rave will make his MLB debut if he gets into a game, and it's a well-deserved promotion for the 27-year-old who slashed .301/.382/.549 with nine home runs and 17 stolen bases in 202 plate appearances with Omaha this season. Rave has mostly played center field in 2025, but has some experience playing in the corners. The move comes just days after right fielder Hunter Renfroe was DFA'd, though it's more likely Rave will be a depth piece in center field while Drew Waters and Mark Canha handle most of the work in right field. Waters had been Kyle Isbel's (illness) primary backup in center field before Renfroe's departure.
