The Tigers have extended Cabrera. Years and money not yet known. He'd be 33 in the first year of an extension.
edit: the AAV is at least $30MM, for at least 6 additional years. Not sure how many years yet.

It's 83 this year and I hope they can outperform it again. I'm just pointing out that I've read some outrageous shit before, but calling someone a battered fan for picking a Royals team to win 80 games is up there.

I'm okay with this. He's a stud, but they will be hampered by that contract at the tail end.

The team on paper looks pretty good, and clearly better than last year. Detroit has clearly gotten worse. There's really no good reason for a putative Royals fan to pick 80 wins.

If Zimmer comes on strong, and looks fit for in June or July, will that change anyone's outlook on our rotation and total wins?

I made waves last winter when I claimed I would eat a bowl of my own sh*t if Sal Perez cracked 30 HR as Yost claimed was possible. (I don't know if he even ended up halfway there).
I will make the same offer this year. If we win the AL and go to the World Series, not only will I eat a bowl of my own sick. I will ask Duncan and Al North and every other long suffering Royals fan to chip in and make it a true bed-pan. I ain't even playin. |

Cabreras deal is for 8 more years at 30 per. In total, Cabrera signed for 10 more years and 284 million. He turns 31 in April. Per Rosenthal tweet.
Holy **** Edit: Looks like Rosenthal just spitting hypotheticals out based on his source saying its over 6 years. Even still though

Again, there is no good reason for someone who calls themselves a Royals fan to predict a losing season. It obviously could happen because baseball is a very random game, but 80 wins is very low on the probability distribution.

Our offensive improvement should easily cover any regression on defense or pitching, and then some.
