Carlos Beltran is open to the idea of signing with the Kansas City Royals, the club that drafted him.
"I think it would be a great story if it happens for me to go back," Beltran said.
Beltran, who turned down a $14.1 million qualifying offer from the St. Louis Cardinals, has attracted the interest of "probably seven to 10 teams."
"Right now, there are just a lot of teams that have interest in my services, but we haven't talked about the number of years or the money; everything is preliminary right now," Beltran said.
