Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports the Royals have signed Maikel Franco to a one-year, $2.95 million contract.
Fantasy Impact
Heyman adds that Franco could earn an additional $1 million in performance incentives. The 27-year-old third baseman was non-tendered by the Phillies earlier this winter after batting .234/.297/.409 in 2019. He'll likely open the 2020 season as the Royals' everyday third baseman.
