The Royals claimed Grossman off waivers from Texas on Saturday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
Scouting Report
Has excellent strike-zone judgment, switch-hitting ability and pretty good upside as a hitter. Also owns good speed and very good base-running instincts. Must prove capable of hitting for power in the long run, since the jury is still out. His defensive ability is not great for MLB, and he only has an average arm.
Long Range Potential: Decent, switch-hitting outfielder.
