With the 2015 MLB season ending last weekend, with the Kansas City Royals winning the World Series, we will be seeing a lot of big name free agency signings. After every year there are many players who become free agents meaning that any team in the MLB can come in contact with that player and discuss contract terms and potentially sign them. The Kansas City Royals will be seeing some of their best players leave their team to due to free agency and the lack of willingness to spend money to keep them Royals.
The Royals have quite a few free agents with several of them being big name players. The Free agents for the 2016 from the Royals roster will be: Alex Gordon, Alex Rios, Ben Zobrist, Jeremy Guthrie, Johnny Cueto, Franklin Morales, Ryan Madson, Chris Young, and Jonny Gomes. The big names that the Royals have already lost are right fielder-Alex Rios, left fielder-Jonny Gomes, and starting pitcher-Jeremy Guthrie. The Royals would like to resign Ben Zobrist, Alex Gordon, and Chris Young, with little interest in signing the others, but due to the lack of money, or willingness to spend it, the Royals may be only getting Chris Young back. Zobrist and Gordon will most likely fetch $100+ million dollar, multi-year contracts which will put those players on other teams in the league.
