KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Royals placed All-Star catcher Salvador Perez on the seven-day concussion list Monday. The move came two days after Perez left a game against the Astros with what the club called a non-concussive head impact. The Royals made the move before opening a three-game series against the Guardians. They selected the contract of Tyler Cropley from Triple-A Omaha in a corresponding move and transferred fellow catcher Freddy Fermin to the 60-day injured list. Perez is hitting .252 with 21 homers and 72 RBIs for the Royals this season.
