Joe Posnanski notices that with the signing of Brian Anderson, the Royals have cornered the market for low OPS+ players:

And now, Brian N. Anderson, with his career 69 OPS+ is the leading candidate to be the Opening Day centerfielder.

So — there were seven every day players in all of baseball last year with OPS+ of 80 or less. The Royals project to have FIVE IN THEIR OPENING DAY LINEUP. And that is assuming that Josh Fields, with his 68 OPS+ in 268 plate appearances last year, does not win a place in the lineup. And he could. The Royals like his bat.

Dayton Moore is reminding me of Woody Allen’s cello playing in “Take the Money and Run.”
