Royals' Drew Butera: Signs two-year deal with Royals
Butera signed a two-year contract with the Royals on Friday, Rustin Dodd of the Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis:
He played sparingly behind Salvador Perez last season but Butera fared well when given an opportunity, as he hit .285/.328/.480 in 133 plate appearances. It was his first season with an OPS above .550. Butera is probably in line for a similar workload in 2017.
