"I love Seth Lugo. We're a much better team with Seth Lugo here than not here, whether that's just '25 or '26. If you move a guy like Seth Lugo, you better be really sure you're getting something back that makes this team significantly better.
Because you take a guy like that out of your rotation, you're not the same team."

  2. Seth Lugo is a great guy to have around, I’d love an extension if we can swing it. 

  6. Sounds like someone doesn’t want to admit his GMing hasn’t resulted in a team that should be buyers rather than sellers

  8. I think this means they won’t just trade him just to trade him. They need to get a decent return back.

  9. He’s one of the best pitchers available at the deadline. He better bring in a haul.

    With all the pitcher injuries and the shitty streaky offense, we aren’t in the hunt. A 36 year old pitcher with that much value isn’t a piece to build around. Between Ragans, boobs, and Cameron we have a strong rotation to build off of with other FA pitchers.

  10. Fans: I wish the Royals would stop being so cheap and spend some money.

    Royals: *rumored to extend one of the best pitchers in the league over the last two years to prevent him from hitting free agency*

    Fans: OMG WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS!

  11. Seth Lugo is 35–36 years old. He’s got maybe a year or two left and then he’s going to fall off a cliff. You trade him now. Keeping onto him until he’s worth nothing, is a Dayton Moore move. He better trade him because this team isn’t winning this year or next.

  13. Extending lugo is spending a decent amount of money on one of the best available pitchers

    And an offense that is beginning to wake up I don’t understand being mad at this at all

  14. This is how we went from 2015 to 2017-2023. Front office refusing to move guys when it was time to do so.
