The Kansas City Royals are making moves this offseason, signing pitcher Michael Wacha to a three-year contract with a club option for 2028, totaling $51 million guaranteed. Wacha, who had a solid 2024 season with a 3.35 ERA and 145 strikeouts, played a key role in the Royals' successful run to the ALDS after a challenging previous season.

With Wacha back in the rotation alongside Seth Lugo, Cole Ragans, and Brady Singer, the Royals are looking to build on their recent playoff success. The team is also considering the future of other pitchers like Michael Lorenzen and Alec Marsh as they strategize for the upcoming season.
