Following the 2011 season, Verdugo was traded by the Giants to the Kansas City Royals with Jonathan Sánchez for Melky Cabrera.[1] He was added to the Royals 40 man roster on November 18 to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[2] Verdugo made his major-league debut on July 17, 2012, against the Seattle Mariners.

Verdugo was designated for assignment by the Royals on November 20, 2012 as they cleared room on the 40-man roster ahead of the Rule 5 draft.[4] He was subsequently outrighted to AAA.
