Wade Davis pusses out of the league after only 13 years.

He could still do it if he really wanted to. But he is pussing out.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Free agent pitcher Wade Davis, a three-time All-Star, is retiring after 13 major league seasons at age 36.

His retirement was announced by his agency, Jet Sports, the Kansas City Royals said Wednesday. Davis played for the Royals in 2021 and helped Kansas City win the 2015 World Series title.

“Wade will forever be remembered by our fans, his teammates and our organization as an elite competitor and a very classy person,” Royals president of baseball operations Dayton Moore said in a statement.

Davis was 63-55 with a 3.94 ERA and 141 saves in 161 chances over 88 starts and 469 relief appearances for Tampa Bay (2009-12), Kansas City (2013-16, 2021), the Chicago Cubs (2017) and Colorado (2018-20). He was an All-Star from 2015-17.

The right-hander was 4-0 with a 1.80 ERA and eight saves in the postseason, including 3-0 with a 0.36 ERA and four saves for the Royals in 2014 and ’15.

Holy shit that's a bad contract

Hahn asleep at the switch. Rather overpay Simien then spend 24 million on a middle reliever.

No way I would give Gausman that type of money. He has had one good year. The rest of his career has been mediocre to bad.

Texas has been a bad team with a new stadium. They are going to have to overpay. Looks like they are going for Jon Gray next. They also signed Kodi Calhoun as a reclamation project for RF, but he's probably a July flip target.

Avi Garcia, 4 years, $53 million?

That's insane.

Yes it is. If that's Garcia's true value, Semien is a bargain and the White Sox were fools for not signing him.

and I thought the owners were going to hold there money until labor resolved itself

its been a holiday spending spree

They'll be taking April off is all. It really is a horrible month for baseball.

Seeing some of these reported deals is odd given the coming lockout. The players willingness to sign indicates to me that they feel like the old rules will be better than the new ones. But why are the owners doing it? Is the money flowing in that well….the years and dollars are crazy.

Scherzer 3/130, just getting silly now

Insane.




$350+ million salary for his career, and he might not be done after 2024. Unreal.

_________________

Overpay, but not THAT bad of deal considering the market, cheap ass Cubs weren't even in play

That's a fair deal for Ray.

Someone wake Hahn up.

After seeing his pitching staff get destroyed in the playoffs it makes sense for him to lose his best starter and then stand pat.

Ten years $325MM for Corey Seager?

Can't stay healthy in his 20's, but I'm sure he'll be fine as he gets older....

Tim Anderson must be counting the days until he's a free agent

I understand you can pick and choose stats, but the last 4 seasons:
Tim Anderson = 15 WAR
Cory Seager = 8.7 WAR

For my money, Ray has the best stuff of all the FAs.

I have zero proof Scherzer is on the downside, but his nibbling is a sign he is. It was a terrible signing for the Mets.

Corey Seagar to the Rangers.

What is the labor beef about? Teams are throwing around big deals all over..even Tampa

5 of those 10 years he'll be hurt and 2 of those ten years he'll be old.

They've spent nearly a billion dollars that they are going to regret before the summer.
