awful

[CubbieBum]

When the Royals spend money they need to spend it wisely. I guess they haven't learned that yet. I love Farns but with what he did in Detroit him getting nearly 5 mil per is pretty bad.

Well, it is an odd-numbered year...

In related news, MLB announces that the Kansas City franchise used a spy in the commissioner's office to uncover plans to replace extra innings with a "hardest pitch" competition.

Farnsworth is getting almost $5M a year? What?

 

Why would anyone pay him $5M what has he ever done to deserve that?

[AZCub]

Royals obviously looking to spur the local pub economy, because no way in hell Farns is worth that.

How can anyone justify the economy is effecting baseball contracts when Kyle Freakin Farnsworth will be making a annual salary of nearly $5 mil. the next two seasons?
