Royals' Jerry Vasto: In line for callup

Vasto is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday, Jeffrey Flanagan of MLB.com reports.

Vasto was dealt from the Rockies to the Royals at the end of August, and after briefly reporting to the minor leagues, he'll get a chance with the big-league squad. He managed to appear in just one game out of the bullpen for Colorado in June, recording two outs and allowing three runs on three hits and a walk while striking out one. Vasto figures to serve in a bullpen role down the stretch of the regular season.
