The Kansas City Royals appear close to locking down a final piece of their offense for the coming season.
Late on Friday night, Dominican reporter Yancen Pujols tweeted (in Spanish) that the Royals and two-time All-Star outfielder Starling Marte had “been talking” about a potential major league deal. Pujols followed up that initial report with an update that negotiations were “advancing.”
On Saturday morning, Jon Heyman of the celebrity.land confirmed that the two sides were “talking,” but nothing was yet close to final. So while Royals fans shouldn’t yet go buying their Marte jerseys, it’s clear that something is afoot here, and if it gets across the finish line, Kansas City will have added a nice finishing touch to its position player group.
