Royals designated hitter Kendrys Morales has changed agents, according to Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com (via Twitter). He’ll now be represented by the Wasserman Media Group.
Morales has thrived in Kansas City, where he landed this winter on a two-year, $17MM deal. Over 639 plate appearances, Morales has slashed a robust .290/.362/.485 with 22 home runs.
That pre-2015 contract came despite a forgettable 2014 season in which Morales struggled badly after waiting to sign until the middle of the year. He was unable to find a suitable multi-year deal after declining a qualifying offer, precipitating the delay.
