Royals signed shortstop Luis Hernandez to a minor league contract.
Upset about losing Angel Sanchez on waivers, the Royals had to go and sign another shortstop who can't hit. Hernandez is still just 24, but after hitting .241/.295/.263 in 79 at-bats for the Orioles last season, he went down and batted .185/.216/.220 in 205 at-bats in Triple-A. Those concerned about the Large Hadron Collider should be much more worried about the far greater possibility of a black hole forming if the Royals put Hernandez and Tony Pena Jr. on the field at the same time next spring.
