Parrish began the 2022 season with Northwest Arkansas and was promoted to the Triple–A Omaha Storm Chasers in June.[9] In 27 games (25 starts) between the two clubs, he registered a combined 7–11 record and 4.13 ERA with 99 strikeouts in 128+2⁄3 innings pitched.[10] In 2023, Parrish made 28 appearances (24 starts) split between Northwest Arkansas and Omaha, but struggled to a 7–8 record and 6.54 ERA with 96 strikeouts in 117.0 innings of work.[11] On September 26, 2023, Parrish was released by the Royals organization.[12]
