Jul 7 Freel was in the starting lineup in center field Tuesday night against the Tigers, the Royals' official site reports.

Recommendation: Perhaps Freel will get going in his third MLB stop this season, but he'll need to stay healthy and get on base more than he did with the Orioles and Cubs for his wheels to help either the Royals or fantasy owners. On the plus side, he claims to be at 100 percent health-wise, so maybe he can cash in on his latest opportunity.

Jul 7 INF/OF Ryan Freel, acquired in a trade Monday, got the start in center field and went 1-for-3 with a run scored. Yahoo! Sports


Jul 6 Kansas City acquired Freel on Monday from the Chicago Cubs for a player to be named later.

Advice: The Royals are hoping that Freel can provide the speed and versatility that they've been missing. Freel has started at five positions in his career, playing the infield and outfield, and has a career .355 on-base percentage with 143 stolen bases.
