I say Chris Getz was worse at 2b. And Aaron Guiel has to be in that outfield somewhere.

While it was looked upon as unnecessary by many, things like giving Salvy the extra cash when he was already under a team-friendly deal is just one example of why the front office has the reputation it has with its players. It goes the extra mile to keep the core happy. If there is one guy that I would bet stays here from the 2017 free agents, Danny Duffy has to be far and away the most likely to stay. He has always been publicly adamant about wanting to stay in KC. |

Listened to the Duffy interview. Hope they can get a deal done. Especially since it could free up some crucial cash for this year.

Royals / Hosmer avoid arbitration. Agree to one year deal.
http://m.royals.mlb.com/news/article...n-1-year-deal/ The Royals and first baseman Eric Hosmer have agreed on a one-year deal, thus avoiding arbitration, the club announced. A source told MLB.com the deal is worth $12.25 million. Hosmer made $8.25 million in 2016. |

Would've been nice to see them take him to arb and argue about how bad his 2016 was, but DM doesn't do that

Meh, there's a considerable difference between Duffy's interview and Hosmer/Moose's glib comments of "yeah sure it'd be cool to stay but we gotta see where the market is at."

We will revisit that one later this season. I'll bet you DJ's Left Nut they both excitedly welcome a KC offer
