The Royals have signed veteran catcher Vance Wilson to a minor-league contract.

Wilson will continue to rehabilitate from a right elbow injury, and as such won’t be in big-league camp during spring training. That elbow injury limited the 35-year-old to three games over the past two seasons.

Before that, he was a backup catcher for eight seasons with the Mets and Tigers, hitting .250 with 25 homers in 402 games.
