Morin agreed to a one-year contract with the Royals on Friday, avoiding arbitration.

Morin was claimed off waivers by the Royals in September last season after the Angels designated the right-hander for assignment, and he went on to appear in six games for his new club. Over the course of the year, he posted an ERA of 7.20 and a 1.70 WHIP over 20 big-league innings but missed some time with neck stiffness and spent time with the Angels' Triple-A affiliate as well. Moving forward, he will look to earn a role in Kansas City's bullpen, and try to recapture his form from 2016.
