Kameron Misner

The Royals acquired outfielder Kameron Misner from the Rays on Monday in exchange for cash considerations. Misner had been designated for assignment by Tampa Bay last week and will now get a fresh opportunity in Kansas City.

Fantasy Impact

Kansas City’s shallow outfield depth could allow Misner to earn some playing time, but he’ll need to make major strides at the plate to stay in the mix. The 27-year-old owns a .585 OPS and 34.1 percent strikeout rate over 232 career plate appearances, keeping him well off the fantasy radar for now.

The Tampa Bay Rays designated outfielder Kameron Misner for assignment on Thursday. The move places Misner, who turns 28 in January, on waivers following a lackluster 2025 campaign.
