One of the first situations the Royals will have to deal with as they begin their offseason is Michael Wacha’s contract. During the last off-season, Wacha signed a two-year deal worth $16 million each year with a player opt-out after the first year. Or, if you prefer, he signed a one-year deal worth $16 million with a player option for a second year. It’s the same result.
