I thought he'd get more considering the $ L.A. can spend + his youth and potential. With that said.... $30mil Wtf has sports come to?

Crazy, he's a great pitcher but one bad injury and he could be done. Too risky even though LA can afford it.

Individual players now get yearly salaries close to or above the total yearly salaries paid by the most frugal teams.

Sad day for a Royals fan. Baseball is broken and needs to be fixed. I saw a stat on ESPN that of the 25 highest paid contracts in MLB, the Dodgers have five of them. Zach Greinke is at #7.

I'd rather see the Royals in a "second league" below the major markets at this point. It would give them a chance to be competitive. The Royals will never win a pennant. I resigned myself to that a while ago.

No player in any sport, especially a pitcher who plays every 5th game, is worth $30MM a year.
Just plain dumb. |

You're probably right, but I refuse to believe that. Took my family to 5 games at the K last year including opening day and July 3/4. Saw some great baseball and made some amazing memories. The shitty part is that they are in love with they Royals too and "they believe". That's what pisses me off. Even the wifey has bought all in and she was born and raised in Minnesota. Wife was washing dishes tonight when I told her about the signing, and she said maybe Royals can catch lightning in a bottle. Please, please tell me that's not what we are resigned to.
