Its not as easy as pie.
Signing Omar Infante to a four year, $30 million deal back in 2013 seemed like a good idea at the time. But here we are two years into the deal, and Omar Infante has hit .238/.268/.329 in 259 games with the Royals. He has provided good enough defense, but it hasn't been enough to overcome his atrocious bat. Out of 34 second baseman with at least 500 plate appearances over 2014-2015, Infante ranked 32nd in rWAR with 0.0. If the Royals decide to bring back Ben Zobrist, Omar might find himself with even less playing time, giving the Royals a very expensive 34-year old infielder on their bench.
