Fantasy Impact:

Jon Heyman of Fancred Sports adds that there is a fifth-year club option that could bring the total value of the contract to $30 million. This is a very team friendly deal for the Royals that also sets Merrifield up for life. The 30-year-old second baseman led the American League in hits and steals in 2018.
