The Royals announced that they released outfielder Endy Chavez (Twitter link). The Legacy Agency represents Chavez, who is now a free agent.
The Royals added Chavez on a minor league deal in December after he spent the 2012 season with Baltimore. Chavez played all three outfield positions for the Orioles last year, posting a .203/.236/.278 batting line in 169 plate appearances. The 35-year-old has played for seven teams in his 11-year MLB career.
