Kansas City receives Gomes and cash from the Braves in
exchange for 21-year-old minor league player Luis Valenzuela.
Gomes, 34, has moved around throughout his career and will be
joining his seventh Major League team in Kansas City. He is
batting .221 with seven homers and 22 RBIs through 83 games this
season and the member of Boston's 2013 title team is expected to
provide the Royals (80-50) with championship experience.
