Outfielders Jorge Bonifacio and Brett Phillips, who were considered part of a potential mix of bodies in right field, were optioned to Triple-A Omaha, the Kansas City Royals announced Tuesday.

The Royals also sent outfielder Bubba Starling, a 2011 first-round draft pick, to their minor league camp along with pitchers Richard Lovelady, Zach Lovvorn and Drew Storen, catcher Xavier Fernández, infielders Jecksson Flores and Nicky Lopez and outfielder Elier Hernandez.
The Royals are left with 37 players in major league camp.
Bonifacio parecía tener una buena oportunidad de formar parte del equipo como jardinero de reserva y bateador designado ocasional, pero tendrá que esperar su oportunidad en las menores. Tiene una línea aburrida de .244 / .317 / .405 en 182 juegos en su carrera, lo que no es lo suficientemente bueno como para ser el primer bateador.
