Kansas City Royals Have Seen Paulo Orlando Before

Raul Ibanez was an interesting player. He bounced around between the majors and the minor leagues until he was 27 years old, and did not get a chance to be an every day player until he came to the Kansas City Royals at age 29. Despite that late start to his career, Ibanez managed to hit 305 home runs, have 2034 hits and drive in 1207 runs. Not bad for someone who got their chance much later than quite a few other players.

Now, twelve years later, the Kansas City Royals have another outfielder getting his first real chance at age 29 in Paulo Orlando.
