A KC Royals reliever signed in September may not have a long stay at Triple A Omaha.

The KC Royals’ commitment to immediate improvement, convincingly demonstrated by General Manager Dayton Moore’s surprising aggressiveness this winter, has added a handful of established, well-known veterans to the roster. The signings of free agents Mike Minor, Michael A. Taylor and Carlos Santana, and the re-signing of closer Greg Holland, make the Royals a better club. And it certainly won’t hurt the team’s 2021 prospects if former Royal Ervin Santana, signed to a minor league deal late last month, returns to form.
