It appears the Royals have signed Jeff Francoeur to a two-year extension which will keep him with the club through 2013 when he will be 29 years old.
↵Frenchy came to the team this past winter from the Texas Rangers when he signed a one year $2.5 million contract. For the season he has hit .278/..328/.465 with 15 home runs and 66 RBI.
↵I’m not the biggest fan of a two year deal, but if it came at the right price, so be it. Terms of the contract have not yet been released.
