As spring training games started up, the Royals started making a little bit of news. And Jeff returned to help host (after his first few weeks adjusting to parenthood).

The Royals signed Salvador Perez to a contract extension, so we talked about the money, the risks, and what it means for the organization.

We also talked briefly about Jarrod Dyson's oblique injury, Bubba Starling's rising hope, and we shared some thoughts about Kyle Zimmer's solid spring debut.
