Athletic also had some interesting comments on his FB spin rate and changeup break.

Junis is heading to the bullpen - Royals FO has been telegraphing this for months.
FG agreed with you:

It seems Moore has been high on Taylor for sometime. I want to say his name was floated around when we trying to do the Greinke deal with the Nats along with the Wade Davis/Lorenzo Cain deal.

The Kansas City Royals announced today that they have signed outfielder Michael A. Taylor. Per club policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. In a corresponding move, the Royals designated left-handed pitcher Foster Griffin for assignment.

According to MLB.com's Mark Feinsand, Taylor's deal is for one year and worth $1.75 million, plus $1 million in incentives, per a source.

Taylor, 29, was granted free agency last month following seven Major League seasons, all with the Washington Nationals, including a World Series championship in 2019. This past season, he hit .196 in 38 games, but 11 of his 18 hits went for extra bases, resulting in a .424 slugging percentage. Taylor made starts at all three outfield positions, including eight in left field and center field and seven in right field.

He set career highs in 2017 with 23 doubles, 19 home runs, a .271 batting average and .806 OPS. Taylor also tied for second among National League center fielders with eight outfield assists, despite playing in just 113 games, and was named a finalist for the Rawlings Gold Glove Award. The following season, in 2018, he recorded a career-high 24 stolen bases while playing in a career-high 134 games.

Taylor was originally drafted as an infielder by Washington in the sixth round of the 2009 First-Year Player Draft, out of Westminster Academy in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.

He’s been at his best in postseason play, batting .316 (12-for-38) with four home runs and 10 RBI in 16 career playoff games, including a home run in Game 2 of the 2019 World Series, his only plate appearance of the series.
His glove does look gordon lite version. Sadly so does his batting average. Thankfully he ups it in the post season. Hopefully it is a home run for us.

The Taylor signing feels like a smart move to begin competing again. He probably helps the young pitchers as much as anyone. Will be interesting to see if they tender Franco or not. I assume they will tender Soler.

Taylor will not solve the problem. He's another 4th OF . Not a true every day guy that we need. Spend some ****ing money. Adam Eaton, Puig, Brantly, Pederson etc. We are terrible out there right now.

I think Taylor is a place holder. Only signed for one year. He'll start in left until either Lee or Isbel make it to the majors. Because of incoming prospects, I don't see them spending big money / multiple years on outfielders.

I think Taylor's signing puts Whit in right field now.

It's annoying as hell that this team does this so often. Signs some scrub vet for a couple mil or more and then proceeds to play scrub vet with no future over one of the guys in our system.

If Taylor gets significant playing time and Lee doesn't, then I'll be really annoyed.

Dayton Moore and the Royals are spending some money on Mike Minor

Quote:
Mike Minor’s contract with the Kansas City Royals will guarantee him $18 million, per Jeff Passan on Twitter. Jon Heyman says that Minor will get $7 million in 2021, $10 million in 2022, and has a 2023 team option for $13 million with a $1 million buyout.
