Maroth will return to the AL Central where he has never fared well. Royals had no lefties in the rotation so Maroth will have his chance to become that guy. Hell, if you're going to get Nomo why not get Maroth.Royals agreed to terms with LHP Mike Maroth on a minor league contract and invited him to spring training.
Maroth was bad with the Tigers and then horrible with the Cardinals last season, combining to post a 6.89 ERA in 116 1/3 innings. He has a chance to win a spot at the back of the Royals' rotation given the modest competition for jobs, but has very little shot of having a positive fantasy impact.
