Royals take chance on high-upside reliever who couldn't stick with Cardinals

Stop me if you've heard this before; the Kansas City Royals have signed a former big league veteran to a minor league contract.

It's been a frequent occurrence for the Royals this season to stockpile veteran depth in their minor league ranks. And they stuck to that trend again on Tueday and added another name to the fold, signing reliever Nick Robertson to minors deal, as per Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston.

Robertson becomes the second minor league deal the Royals have made in the past week after they agreed to terms with former Red Sox top prospect Bobby Dalbec this past Friday.
