Wade Davis' deal with the #Royals will pay him $1.25 million if he's on their big-league roster with $925,000 in incentives. He also has an opt-out if he doesn't make their opening-day roster.
Fun signing...but not expecting much. If he's able to pull a Holland, then it will be nice to have another championship vet in the bullpen for the younger guys. [Reply]

Very short season. This year, .500 ? I Would take that in a heartbeat! The vets on this team will not carry them to it. The kids will get some very good playing experience to use as a stepping stone to next year. A lot of this years success will be pitching, can we get enough quality innings from starters and can a good bullpen come out of camp.
"If" it all comes together? 80 - 85 wins
Good Stepping stone season ? 72 - 79 wins
If we sustain a lot of injuries? 65 - 71 wins
IMHO based off last years strong finish, I think we come without the bad start like last year, finish with a 72 to 79 win season. Not what we want but a good building block for the 22 season. [Reply]
Low cost minor league deal, so it is worth checking him out.
Kelvin Herrera is still a free agent.

Last couple years for Wade have been brutal, but he generally pitched better when he was away from Coors Field. If you're going to get a lottery ticket it might as well be a guy leaving that death trap for pitchers. [Reply]
