January 27, 201610 yr The Kennedy contract has future albatross written all over it. If Kennedy doesn't pitch up to expectations and decides not to opt-out, the Royals will be stuck like pigs.
January 27, 201610 yr Aka Danksed, although in this case they knowingly overpaid by $20 million and are still okay with it. At any rate, they're paying Gordon and Kennedy an average of $12.25 million per year these two seasons...in order to maintain payroll flexibility in order to add at the All-Star break and extend the window two more years... If they miss the playoffs this season, it will turn out to be foolish. Edited January 27, 201610 yr by caulfield12
