Wow, talk about a name you probably have heard in a long time!  Hideo Nomo has agreed on a minor league contract with the Kansas City Royals and will be invited to Spring Training next month.  Nomo has been pitching in the Venezuelan Winter League.  During the Winter league, his numbers were 6.59 ERA and a 7/7 K/BB ratio in 13 2/3 innings.  Not exactly pretty.

I really doubt Nomo will make the team as he battles back from elbow surgery.   If Nomo makes the team, the Royals have a lot more problems then we had originally thought!
