The Royals being more active than the Astros at this stage of the off season is making me feel a certain type of way. 😂😂😂
Our model projects two years of Michael Wacha at $31.2M in field value, or right in line with his reported two-year, $32M contract with the #Royals.

the Royals & Tigers lost more games over the last 6 seasons than every other team obvs wish more teams were willing to spend when the situation clearly calls for it but them making real moves in an effort to not absolutely suck (what a concept!) has been refreshing to see https://t.co/c4xoPYk3FU

Royals have added Seth Lugo, Michael Wacha, Hunter Renfroe, Will Smith, Chris Stratton and Kyle Wright. Much improved team is nearing or at their limit of free agent $ but may still consider trades.
Counting the signing of Stratton, Wacha, and Renfroe, the Royals' 26-man Opening Day payroll is now around $110 million. They absolutely can afford it - they were over $110M every year from 2015-2018 - but it's good to see them finally do it. John Sherman making some damn moves.
Michael Wacha, Hunter Renfroe, and Chris Stratton can all walk away after one season. The Royals didn't sign them to be long-term solutions. The Royals signed them to try to win in 2024. That's the pitch they're making. And in the AL Central, that's a pitch worth making.

The Royals sure are signing a bunch of dudes...but the dudes they're signing aren't that good...but a team of guys who aren't that good might be able to win the AL Central...
Royals really positioning themselves to have new relievers that we can blame things on in 2024
