2012
After spending time in the Mariners and Pirates farm systems, Adcock finally made his major league debut with the Royals in 2011, after they selected him in the Rule 5 draft. Used as a reliever, he had 29 strikeouts and 24 walks with a 4.18 ERA over 47.1 innings. Having never spent time in Double or Triple-A, Adcock's performance wasn't all that disappointing. Moving forward, he'll need to curb his appetite for walks, if he's going to be successful, while the Royals now have the option of sending him down to the minors for additional seasoning if they prefer to continue his development that way.
