The KC Royals optioned Terrance Gore to Double-A Northwest Arkansas Naturals yesterday. Someone is joining the big club on Friday.

The KC Royals made a roster move yesterday afternoon following their blowout loss to the Washington Nationals.

They sent down the pinch-running specialist, Terrance Gore, to Double-A ball and will make a move tomorrow prior to the start of the game against Cleveland.

Jeffrey Flanagan, who covers the Royals for MLB.com, offered some further insight via Twitter:

The Royals seemingly have many ways they could go when making their decision to call someone up. Aside from having a bullpen that’s been taxed over the past couple of days, they have a punch-less lineup right now also.

Let’s take a look at some of the most likely candidates to get called up to join the Royals on Friday.
