Royals' Colin Selby: Dealt to Kansas City

Selby was traded from the Pirates to the Royals on Sunday in exchange for minor-league lefty pitcher Connor Oliver.

Selby was designated for assignment by Pittsburgh on Tuesday, and he'll now head to his new home in Kansas City. The 26-year-old made two appearances with Triple-A Indianapolis this season, tossing two scoreless innings while striking out a batter. He'll likely begin his tenure with the Royals at Triple-A Omaha, where he'll look to impress in order to earn a shot with the major-league roster down the road.
