When the Kansas City Royals drafted Alex Gordon with the second overall pick in the 2006 draft, I don’t know if anyone expected that he’d be a member of the Royals for life, but his new deal with the team makes that very likely. The Royals and Alex Gordon have come to an agreement on a four year deal worth somewhere around $70 million.
You all know who and what Alex Gordon is. He’s a good hitter who works a walk and hits for some power. He plays elite defense with one of the most accurate arms in baseball.
