It was year 4 of the Ian Kennedy contract where the Royals bailed on him as a starter right? IIRC, Kennedy signed a 5 year deal with the Royals, so if we extrapolate that out using maths, that would mean they shouldn't try to convert Corbin until at least late next season if he still pitches like this.
Good thing Mike Foltynewicz and Jordan Lyles exist this season because they are stinking it up more than Corbin. Only thing different is that Texas was expected to stink coming into the season.
Right on Kennedy.
If the Royals are willing to eat the embarrassment of moving a high paid free agent to the bullpen, so can the Nationals if he starts off next season poorly.
