Would the Royals owe Emilio Bonifacio the $575K if they had not settled before arbitration (January 17th)? If so then at that time KC must have thought they wanted him on the team. The Royals signed Omar Infante on December 13th so that should not have factored in.

Seems like a waste of $575K of the Glass Family Fortune.
