The Royals have dealt Omaha catcher Lucas May to the Arizona Diamondbacks, likely for a player to be named later.
↵May started this season hitting just 1-for-23 at AAA Omaha, but had hit .269 since to bring his average to .176/.263/.329 with three home runs and 13 RBI.
↵Coming over from the Dodgers last season in the Scott Posednik deal, May batted .189/.205/.216 in 12 games at the end of last season for the Royals. Manny Pina will now see more playing time at catcher for Omaha.
