Royals General Manager Dayton Moore is Stoked!

“It’s an unbelievable organization,” he said. “It’s got a lot of potential upside. The people coming up through the organization are unbelievable players. The people just make it a special place." said Mike Moustakas the Chatsworth High School product from California was jubilant!

Moustakas is special though, a rifle arm, (turns out he can toss a tater 95mph) has also has other things going for him too, like, this spring at Chatsworth (Calif.) High all he did was set California's all-time home-run records for a season (24) and career (52). His batting is what the Royals took him for.

Moustakas returned the admiration saying that he said he researched the teams he thought he had a chance to go to and was especially "stoked" about the Royals. All the young blood growing together.

Now comes the hard part. Moore has to deal with the agent. Yeah, the snag that could tear any deal is that Moustakas is represented by Scott Boras, he brings a reputation of long and tough negotiations.

Scott Boras also represents Luke Hochevar, whom the Royals selected first last year, then the Los Angeles Dodgers failed to sign him. Later, the Royals and Hochevar agreed on a $5.3 million deal that included a $3.5 million signing bonus last August.

Now, will the Royals struggle again, to sign THIS guy before the '08 season?
