Kansas City Royals 2016 MLB Draft Review: Rounds 2-10
The Royals completed their draft Sunday, and while it lacked star power, I believe they performed solidly given the restrictions they were dealt. Their restrictions are their own and David Glass and GMDM are just being cheap, you say? Au contraire, the Royals for those of you who didn’t know, were under some pretty strict rules, and […]
