Royals sign Jeremy Guthrie
Jeremy Guthrie @TheRealJGuts
3 more years in Kansas City! I couldn't be more pleased & excited! Thanks to the Royals & all the great fans for your support.👑 |
I am happy but shocked. Another front line starter please.
|
OK...Bravo :clap:
|
Guthrie, Santana, and ?? It's atleast a step in the right direction.
|
Nice. It is a start.
|
Very pleased. If he pitches like he did when we acquired him, that's a great move.
If not, it's still great for trying. Now we just need one more starter. FA/trade. |
Don't like that third year.

The question is: Is Guthrie worth 3 years? A lot depends on what the salary numbers are. I like the guy, and I wanted him back, preferably at two years. I don't think he's a must-have at three years, considering his age. OTOH, if this means Luke Hochevar is non-tendered, I'll take it. |
Happy we're continuing to address the problem, hope that we aren't finished. We still haven't traded anything on the farm, so I have to believe there's one more move in that direction.

If it doesn't, I still like it. |
I hope Guthrie figured it out. Odd structure in last two years leads me to believe he will be gone by trade deadline in 2014. I am optimistic, but also realistic. I hope I am wrong.

I think most believed 3 for 24 was what it would take to sign him, and it's right on that number. Not a terrible deal, but as SK said, we might not be thrilled during his age 36 season.
