Lands on injured list
The Royals placed Harvey on the 15-day injured list with mid-back tightness, retroactive to Aug. 7.
Analysis
Manager Matt Quatraro revealed after Friday's game that back tightness is the reason Harvey hasn't made an appearance since Sunday, and the 29-year-old righty will now officially be sidelined until at least Aug. 23. Lucas Erceg and James McArthur figure to be the leading candidates for saves while Harvey is out, and the Royals will bring up Carlos Hernandez from Triple-A Omaha to replenish their bullpen depth.

Dealing with back tightness
Manager Matt Quatraro said Friday that Harvey has been dealing with back tightness, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Harvey picked up his first save of the season Sunday against the Tigers, though his back issues have prevented him from pitching since then. The Royals skipper didn't make any indication that the 29-year-old reliever will need to spend time on the injured list, but there is also no telling when he'll be available out of the bullpen again.

Notches first save
Harvey allowed a hit during a scoreless inning and earned a save over Detroit on Sunday. He struck out one batter.
Analysis
Harvey started his Royals career with some hiccups, allowing four runs in 4.2 innings entering Sunday's contest. He bounced back against Detroit, needing only nine pitches to finish the 3-2 game and earned his first save of the 2024 season. Harvey owns a 4.44 ERA with a 55:16 K:BB through 50.2 innings. Kansas City's closing situation appears to be fluid right now after James McArthur was charged with a blown save for the sixth time in Saturday's loss against the Tigers.
