SURPRISE, Ariz. -- There's something about the Cactus League that simply agrees with Adalberto Mondesi.
Royals fans will remember vividly how Mondesi, a switch-hitter, tore up the Cactus League last year, hitting .333 and stunning most observers by grabbing a spot on the Opening Day roster.
Well, it's early, but here we go again.
Mondesi, seemingly a long shot to again make the Opening Day roster, is off to a fast start this spring. He is already 3-for-4 with a home run through two games. On Sunday, hitting left-handed, Mondesi smoked two line drives to left for hits.
