Yankees Two-Time All-Star Identified As Possible Royals Leadoff Hitter By Insider

The Kansas City Royals might be able to find their next leadoff hitter in free agency if the New York Yankees let a former All-Star walk.

After an unexpected playoff appearance in 2024, the Royals' arrow is pointing up. They've got good bones: a superstar at one of the game's signature positions, a talented starting rotation, and a bunch of versatile role players. What they don't have, however, is a leadoff hitter.

One insider believes the solution could be to pilfer the leadoff hitter from the team that sent the Royals packing in this year's postseason: the New York Yankees. "The 27-year-old might be willing to sign a short-term deal to build up his value, which would certainly appeal to the Royals," Rogers said.
