Brad Thompson: Signed minor league contract with Royals

Brad Thompson is a solid fifth starter and slightly better than Brian Bannister. Bannister is in turn forced out of the rotation, but can be a productive member of the bullpen. Bannister is better than Kyle Davies and Kyle Farnsworth. The Royals still need a number three and number four starter.
