Looks like Travis Wood's deal with the Royals is for a $12MM guarantee over 2 years, with an option. $4MM, $6.5MM, and an $8MM option with a $1.5MM buyout (per MLBTR). Initially I thought the deal was for much less and was quite annoyed that we did not move on him, but I can see that this is too much for essentially a lefty swingman. I would still want a lefty to emerge from the non-roster guys so that we have a non-Gio lefty and perhaps Ross back in the pen to beef it up.
All the lefty non-roster invitees are relievers. I mentioned it in the off-season thread, but I think Jon Neise on a cheap deal wouldn't be a bad move.
