Yesterday the A’s took on the Orioles in Baltimore, and in the spotlight were two former Royals. Ryan O’Hearn, who became a whipping boy among Royals fans, went two-for-three with three RBI and Brent Rooker - who was in Kansas City for the blink of an eye - smacked two home runs and added five more RBI.
But the former Royals player who has made the most waves in the first two weeks has been Franchy Cordero. The Yankees surprised many by giving him a MLB deal just before the season after Boston released him, and he has responded by hitting .250/.300/.714 with four home runs in his first eight games.
Here’s where you can find former Royals and Royals farmhands on affiliated rosters and in Asia this season.
