The Royals announced on Monday that they have signed Ben Kudrna, the team s second-round pick in the 2021 MLB Draft.
The Royals didn t announce the terms of the agreement, but MLB.com s Jim Callis reported that Kudrna, a right-handed pitcher out of Blue Valley Southwest HS in Kansas, is set to receive a $3 million signing bonus, nearly double the value of the No. 43 overall pick ($1,729,800).
The deal comes after Callis reported the Royals signed No. 7 overall pick Frank Mozzicato for $3.55 million, almost $2 million below pick value. The under-slot deal for Mozzicato meant the Royals could distribute the money elsewhere among their picks.
