Elephant Rumblings: Royals sign Mike Minor to two-year contract

Good morning afternoon, Athletics Nation!

The Oakland A’s had 10 of their players reach free agency this winter, with most or all likely to move on to other clubs next season. On Monday, the first of those players officially found a new home elsewhere, as pitcher Mike Minor signed with the Kansas City Royals, reports Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic.

It’s a two-year contract, adds insider Mark Feinsand, though the salary terms are not yet known.

After an All-Star season in 2019 for the Texas Rangers, Minor struggled in 2020 and was traded to the A’s at the deadline for a pair of solid prospects.
