Lynch agreed to a one-year, $1.025 million contract with the Royals on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
Lynch finished the 2025 campaign with a 3.06 ERA across 67.2 innings, although his 4.75 FIP tells a much different story about how well he performed on the mound. He’ll pick up a slight raise for 2026 and figures to continue working in a multi-inning relief role for the Royals.
