IIRC, the Royals pay the bulk of his salary; the team that picks him up pays him league minimum the rest of the season.

That's why guys like Frenchy are "sunk costs" -- you have to pay him whether he's on the roster or not. The money basically is already spent, whether he performs or not; you can't save any by cutting him.
