Royals making Pena pitcher? : Tony Pena Jr. has hit like a pitcher for the past two years, so the Kansas City Royals plan to convert him to one. Pena, who was the Royals' shortstop on opening day in 2007 and 2008, has hit .156 with 62 strikeouts and eight walks in 276 at-bats the last two years. He was designated for assignment July 16 with a .098 average and one extra-base hit. After clearing waivers, the Royals outrighted him Friday to Triple-A Omaha, but instead of reporting to the Pacific Coast League, Pena could be taking a detour to the Royals' complex in Surprise, Ariz., to work off the mound. "I talked to him about it two or three times," Royals manager Trey Hillman said Sunday. "He's all for it right now. At least to take a look at it and see where it goes."

Fantasy Analysis

Pena worked a perfect ninth inning, including striking out Ivan Rodriguez, on July 21, 2008, in a blowout loss to Detroit. He threw a bullpen season Friday with Royals pitching coach Bob McClure. "We're looking at the possibility of converting him, if all goes well as far as how his arm reacts," Hillman said. "We'll get him off to Arizona, start taking a look at him on the mound and see how that goes. My preference would be to see him in a bullpen situation just because of his touch and feel with throwing a baseball and because of his arm strength. I would say he's probably a setup candidate." In either case, he's not returning to the majors this season as a pitcher or as a hitter at this point. He doesn't need to be owned in Fantasy.
