Fantasy Impact
His rehab destination has yet to be determined but it appears the left-hander has been progressing well of late. Zerpa has yet to pitch at any level this season due to the shoulder injury and spent the bulk of the 2022 season at Double-A where he posted a 4.36 ERA in 13 starts. He appeared in three games for the Royals, posting a 1.64 ERA -- albeit with a 5.51 SIERA -- across 11 innings of work.
