Omar Infante is owed close to $18 Million by the Kansas City Royals. With that type of contract, it would seem likely that he would be, if healthy, the Royals everyday second baseman. Even for a team without the Royals budget, that is quite the payout for a bench player for the next two seasons.
Barring an unlikely trade, that may be what happens. According to Dayton Moore, second base is going to be evaluated during Spring Training, with both Infante and Christian Colon getting a look at being the starter. The finances will not be a factor, as the Royals plan on going with the best lineup available, regardless of their contract.
