Lowery's Miss Ends Chiefs' Bid in 2017

Royals Ender Balboni Deal as Free Agent Risk Grows

The Kansas City Royals refuse to offer Steve Balboni a contract for 1987, risking free agency at age 31 and a possible salary cut if signed later. GM John Schuerholz says Balboni’s earnings package is too high for a backup first baseman, amid prior back issues and limited 1987 production. Balboni, unhappy with last season, eyed a move elsewhere in 1988.
