ChiefsPlanet - Royals *** Official 2016 Royals Offseason Repository ***

I need to escape for a few days and watch a Spring game.

I have meetings this week but maybe the second week of March?

I can bring an air mattress and pay for Uber.

:D

Make the trip and I'll pay YOU, $10 per hour to hangout with me.

Think about it.

Doesn't mean it's true.

No but it still keeps my dream alive that Hos/Wade/Cain will pull a LeBron/Wade/Bosch and agree to team friendly deals as long as they know they aren't the only one staying. Esky, Moose and Kendrys are also welcome to join the party assuming they don't drop off.

And here's an article by Passan about it. The Royals will announce it later today. Will be a straight 5 year deal starting next year.

5/52.5

So, we're paying $36MM for the 2 extra years.

:clap: Salvy is the heart of the team. He deserves every penny. Would love to see him get several more World Series MVP's.

Hosmer - you are on the clock!!

@DBLesky There's no good reason from a baseball perspective to give Perez this deal, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have value. #Royals

Out of that 52.5MM, $6MM of it is a signing bonus.

Barring a minor miracle, he and Moose are both going to test free agency. They don't have midwest ties like Gordon did, nor were they locked into a very team-friendly deal like Salvy.

Sounds like a win-win.

Salvador Perez gets much more security and money up front. Royals get some additional years of control at rates that will still be good as long as he holds up.

Adds some risk for the Royals, but they add control of the final few years of what should be his prime as compensation.

Do we get more years of control? I thought they just turn the last 2 club option years into guaranteed years.
