That's Mike Leake money. I'm not saying Duffy is worth $15 million...but contracts that size don't seem all that rare. The top veteran pitchers are getting upper $30's of millions now.

With trade deadline looming who will the Royals move? - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 09:38:04
     Kennedy and Hamilton for cash - playhard NWMSU - 7/29 10:19:46
          Duffy is due $15m each year through 2021 - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:21:54
               $15 million anymore is nothing for a veteran pitcher - playhard NWMSU - 7/29 10:30:41
                    Agreed, but it's multiple years you're tied into - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:33:19
     Seems like everyone needs pitching - meatiger MU - 7/29 09:43:45
     I heard that Stroman was going to be the biggest name traded - tigerNkc KC - 7/29 09:42:53
          Chris Owings....you can get a .133 average AND a 21+ERA(nm) - Mormad MU - 7/29 10:07:35
               I just saw that he homered in 4 or 5 straight games in - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:08:58
          I think Duffy will be the one who is traded. Nm - Savage KC - 7/29 10:02:17
               I think his contract is a hurdle to get past. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:03:42
          Why did the Mets get Stroman? They are out of it (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 7/29 09:43:32
               Cause they're confident they can sign him long term. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 09:46:14
                    I thougth he was the sausage king of Chicago(nm) - Eggs KC - 7/29 10:04:21
               They're the Mets(nm) - tigerNkc KC - 7/29 09:44:01
                    This is the best answer(nm) - Mormad MU - 7/29 09:47:10
     I guess it depends on if management thinks we can contend - Joeboo MU - 7/29 09:41:35
          Problem is Whit just doesn't get the credit he deserves - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 09:44:03
               No Royals player will ever get talked about in the media. - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 09:46:30
                    That's not true. Zach Greinke was talked about all - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 09:48:27
                         Ok kmaw(nm) - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 09:50:14
     Royals aren't trading Whit. He's far more valuable - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 09:40:43
          agree. - colonel angus beef KC - 7/29 10:37:33
          Whit is 26 years old and the Royals are 26 games below - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 09:43:37
               Whit is 30 (nm) - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 09:44:56
                    I had no idea. Why the **** is he suddenly a stud?(nm) - TheWildcat STL - 7/29 09:57:24
                         A combination of being a late bloomer and being - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 09:59:32
                         Late bloomer. Too bad he was sent down right before the WS. - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 09:58:46
                              He never made it to the majors until 2016. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:00:36
                                   Ok kmaw.(nm) - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 10:01:46
                              Would have guessed he was about 25 (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 7/29 09:59:36
                    Even more reason to trade him then(nm) - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 09:45:34
                         You aren't getting the haul you think you're getting - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 09:46:54
                              We shall see. (nm) - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 09:47:55
                                   Whether you want him traded or not, he won't be traded. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 09:49:19
                                        You might get an organization’s top ten prospect - Savage KC - 7/29 09:56:19
                                             You might get a guy like O'Neill from the Cards - Mormad MU - 7/29 10:27:32
                                             I agree (nm) - Uncle John MU - 7/29 10:18:54
                                             With Carpenter tanking, seems STL would be a perfect - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 10:00:21
                                                  Royals want 3 ready MLB players for Whit. Nm - Savage KC - 7/29 10:03:52
                                                       Which isn't realistic as a trade deadline trade.(nm) - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:06:47
                                                  Can he play 3rd?(nm) - TheWildcat STL - 7/29 10:03:41
                                                       He's played there a couple times, but not really his - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:05:12
                                                            Cards are a 3rd basemen and an ace away from being - TheWildcat STL - 7/29 10:06:30
                                                                 Card could trade Wong and open a hole at 2nd. (nm) - Uncle John MU - 7/29 10:20:19
                                                                      He isn't really cheap (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 7/29 10:35:28
                                                                 He'd be more valuable to a team that would move him - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:08:10
                                                                      Cards have a few of those players - Mormad MU - 7/29 10:10:52
                                                                           Munoz, Edman, and O'Neill. Trade them (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 7/29 10:12:05
                                                                                I'd rather trade Bader, Gyrko and Carp - Mormad MU - 7/29 10:14:11
                                                                                     Bader is worth a couple bats and a McDonalds Filet O Fish (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 7/29 10:16:27
                                                                                          The one that's been under the warmer for a few hours?(nm) - Mormad MU - 7/29 10:20:29
                                                                                               Yes(nm) - TheWildcat STL - 7/29 10:24:40
                                                                      Well, we also need a top tier starting pitcher. (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 7/29 10:10:23
                                                                           Yeah, um, KC doesn't have that. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:11:02
                                                                                He would be a nice acquisition - Mormad MU - 7/29 10:12:37
                                                                                     Him or Wheeler now that it seems Bumgardner isn't - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:13:47
                                                                                          Trevor Bauer, if the Indians are still thinking of trading(nm) - cnk ATL - 7/29 10:16:16
                                                                                               Forgot about him. He'd be great if you want a pitcher - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:17:50
                                                                                                    What about Sonny Gray from Cincy? - Mormad MU - 7/29 10:24:35
                                                                                                         That would be tough. They have him locked up through - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 10:26:42
                                                                                                              They aren't shopping him - you'd have to pry - Mormad MU - 7/29 10:28:15
                                                       He can. He can pretty much play any position except catcher - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 10:04:45
                                        Ok kmaw(nm) - hefeweizen MU - 7/29 09:49:42
                                             If the Royals trade him, I'll be happy. It means they got - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 09:54:05
