Pitcher Aaron Crow will be in spring training with the Royals in 2010. Kansas City signed Crow to a big league contract this week, and he will be given a chance to earn a roster spot. However, Crow hasn't pitched much this season and the Royals are expected to be cautious with him. "Every player that comes to Major League Spring Training we expect to compete for a spot on our team, but we're not going to put limitations on Aaron, by any means," Royals general manager Dayton Moore said. "We want to make sure everything from a strength and conditioning standpoint is where it needs to be before we put him into competitive games. That's important. It's about Aaron having a 15-plus-year career in the Major Leagues." Kansas City took Crow in the first round of June's draft after Washington failed to sign the right-hander last season.
