Scouting Report: Noah Cameron
Kansas City Royals | SP
Overall
Summary
Noah Cameron, 26-year-old left-handed pitcher for the Kansas City Royals, is dealing with back tightness after being scratched from his Tuesday start against Cleveland. He successfully threw a bullpen session Thursday and returned to start Sunday against Detroit, allowing 3 runs on 5 hits and 3 walks over 4 innings. Cameron has significantly regressed from his impressive 2025 rookie season (2.99 ERA, 1.10 WHIP) to a concerning 5.55 ERA and 1.65 WHIP through 7 starts in 2026. He has allowed 3+ runs in 5 consecutive starts and has surrendered 5 home runs in a short stretch. Control issues persist with elevated walk rates, and he's giving up hard contact at higher rates than his rookie year.
