The front office of the Kansas City Royals didn’t stay exactly on script during a hectic Friday. That doesn’t mean the organization stayed silent on a busy day around MLB. In unsurprising moves, contracts were reportedly tendered to arbitration-eligible pitchers Kelvin Herrera, Brandon Maurer and Nate Karns, according to Rustin Dodd of the Kansas City Star.
Right-handed pitcher Mike Morin landed a one-year deal to avoid arbitration. Meanwhile, the team non-tendered speedster Terrance Gore. The move made the outfielder a free agent.
