Royals' Taylor Featherston: Signs with Royals
Taylor Featherston signed a minor-league contract with the Kansas City Royals, Brandon Warne of ZoneCoverage.com reports.Featherston played in 137 big-league games from 2015 to 2017, but his miserable .160/.221/.256 line didn't earn him any playing time last season. He can play anywhere in the infield but his bat is likely too light for even a rebuilding Royals team to find at-bats for him.
