Caglianone Back as DH, Perez Moves to First Base for Royals
Caglianone's return is limited to DH duty, pushing Salvador Perez into a first base role and reshaping Kansas City's lineup.
Jac Caglianone is back in the Royals lineup for the June 30 game against Tampa Bay but is slotted only at designated hitter. His limited role has pushed Salvador Perez to first base, where he is batting sixth. Nick Loftin also returns, restoring the Royals' second-string third baseman to the lineup.
