Royals signed their 2nd and 4th rounders today.
Brett Eibner was the second rounder, a pitcher/OF from University of Akansas. The Royals are going to develop him as a power hitting outfielder, with a chance that he plays CF. R's gave him above slot $1.25M.
Jason Adam is from the KC area, a high school right hander with a live arm and decent secondary pitches. R's gave him $800K, roughly $650K above slot.
Once again, the Royals have spent the money to bring in young talent through the draft.
