It may seem like we just started, but we are already in the last month of the baseball season. In just four weeks we’ll be in the off-season, which means the Royals will have some interesting 40-man roster decisions to make.
The club currently has a full 40-man roster, although they have four players that will be eligible for free agency following the season - outfielder Alex Gordon and pitchers Ian Kennedy, Matt Harvey, and Greg Holland. The Royals will also have five players currently on the 60-day Injured List that are not on the 40-man roster that will have to be added back on following the season - third baseman Kelvin Gutierrez, outfielder Franchy Cordero, and pitchers Mike Montgomery, Foster Griffin, and Glenn Sparkman.
