No major notes this evening, but Royals Vice President of Communications and Broadcasting Mike Swanson tweeted this evening that nearly everyone is already in Arizona and ready to go. Catcher Jason Kendall checked in with the team in Surprise, but has since gone to Los Angeles to visit a surgeon as he continues to rehab last season's injury.
Also, designated hitters Clint Robinson and Kila Ka`aihue have switched numbers this season. Ka`aihue will be wearing number 30 this season, while Robinson is listed as number 25.
