Royals' Lima on disabled list for second time



KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Kansas City Royals pitcher Jose Lima was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained groin for the second time this season Wednesday.
The Royals also added outfielder Rondell White to the roster. He was acquired Tuesday from the San Diego Padres.
Lima won his first seven decisions after he was signed out of the independent Atlantic League, but was 0-1 with a 10.13 ERA in two starts since coming off the disabled list.
General manager Allard Baird said he was unsure who would take Lima's next scheduled start Saturday against Anaheim.
"We'll make a decision, whether that would be a waiver claim, a trade or in-house," Baird said. "We feel our chances with whoever toes the mound for Saturday is a better bet to contribute than an 80 percent Jose Lima."
Baird said Lima would be eligible to come off the DL on Sept. 8 and might miss just two starts.
He and manager Tony Pena recently talked to Lima about his troublesome groin.
