Kansas City Royals outfielder Brian Goodwin thinks competition for an outfield position is a good thing for the team. By
Outfielder Brian Goodwin walked out of the Royals’ spring training facility in Surprise, Arizona in late March unsure where his next chance to play in the major leagues might come from.
The Royals released Goodwin, thought to have been a frontrunner for the right field job, on March 25 with the season opener less than a week away. The organization came to the conclusion that he wasn’t among their best options in right field and/or off the bench, particularly when Lucas Duda became available.
