I'd much rather cut ties with Frenchy and keep Lough as a swing guy, although we have a really lefty heavy outfield already.
Even if the speed element is gone, I think there's a chance he's still capable of being a .280/.350/.450 hitter.

That would be a pretty nice element to add to the Royals' offense.

I wouldn't put all eggs in that basket, but if he's willing to come back for a few million dollars and you can sign him, what's the harm?
