Royals Sign Willie Bloomquist
By Tim Dierkes [January 9 at 12:20pm CST]
According to MLB.com's Dick Kaegel, the Royals signed utility man Willie Bloomquist to a two-year deal for about $3MM. Assuming Bloomquist passes his physical today, he'll compete for the second base job. The 31 year-old hit .279/.377/.285 in 192 plate appearances for the Mariners in '08.

Good lord - a .279 batting average with a .285 slugging percentage? Talk about your stereotypical singles hitter.
