When I started exploring potential free agents the Kansas City Royals might target with less than a month until pitchers and catchers report, the usual suspects came to mind. Outfielder Anthony Santander seemed like a great fit, especially with reports suggesting he might settle for a short-term deal this offseason. Third baseman Alex Bregman’s elite ceiling could make him the perfect running mate for Bobby Witt Jr. on the left side of the infield. And then there’s the international market—where the Royals have historically been minor players—posing an opportunity to invest in top-tier talent like right-hander Roki Sasaki.
The best hitter at Kauffman Stadium the past five years is a free agent - should the Royals sign him?
