Snider signed a minor-league deal with the Royals on Saturday, Rustin Dodd of The Kansas City Star reports.

EDGE Analysis

This will be Snider's third team in two years, after a season split between Baltimore and Pittsburgh. The veteran is still only 27, but he is going to have to improve several facets of his game to find a regular role with the Royals, which already features Alex Gordon, Jarrod Dyson, and Paulo Orlando in the corner outfield.
