The headline of this might not be true by the time you read it, but as of yesterday morning at least, the Royals had spent more on free agents than any other team in baseball. Sure, they’ve allocated less than $20 million so far, but that’s still more than anyone else, and we should celebrate that for as long as its true. Or maybe we should mock the game for it. I actually don’t know. Either way, the Royals are at least being active and after non-tendering Maikel Franco (first suggested here in September, yes I’m taking a victory lap because I so rarely get these things right), they figure to be even more active moving forward, which I’ll get to down in the notes here in a little bit.
