Royals sign Luke Hochevar to a one-year deal
Last updated: 01/12/11 at 18:33 PST by Juan Dominguez The Kansas City Royals have agreed on a one-year deal with pitcher Luke Hochevar, according to Bob Dutton of the Kansas City Star. With this deal, the Royals will avoid the arbitration process with the right-handed pitcher. Jon Heyman of Sports Illustrated adds that Hochevar will receive $1.76 million for 2011. Hochevar, 27, was 6-6 with a 4.81 ERA in 18 games, 17 starts with the Royals in 2010.

exact same amount as last year, no raise?
Cool, he sure as hell did not earn a raise. Hopefully he pitches so well next year that we are forced to double it.

Does it bother anyone that this season long thread is at post #3525 after over a year and a Chiefs single game thread gets close to if not at that post count within a few hours?

No. This is chiefs planet, and most of the in-season discussion takes place in one of over ~100 baseball gameday threads. (we let a few games go near the end of the season when we're sick of watching the royals lose, and we're too active to do series threads) This board is very active as far as royals discussion goes.

Yes. A place like Royalsplanet should have more posts about the royals than chiefs, must just be bc they suck.

On a random and completely unrelated note, if anyone from the Royals is reading this (yeah, right) your blackout policy is F**KINGSTUPID! (all one word, thats how stupid it is, not just stupid, but f**kingstupid)
WHY in THE HELL are you blacking out Iowa? This is solid Cubs and Cardinals territory, none of the cable companies around here really care about the Royals right now. Why are you making it so God Damned hard for me to see your games, I'm even willing to pay extra, just figure out a way that I can get Royals games on MLB.TV or something! (end rant, and yes I've sent a version of this complaint everywhere I know!)

Good signing, and we need some pitching over the next 2 seasons until our young studs are available.

I've always liked Francis. You look at his numbers and go "meh." But I've had him on fantasy teams a couple of years and have watched him pitch, and for whatever reason I just kind of like him.

Nice low risk signing by Moore. Much better than an old pitcher for 3 years.
Would be nice if we had a club option. |
