The Royals just signed Tony Gonsolin to a major league deal, prorating his 2026 salary at $246K with a $2.5M club option for 2027 — but he’s immediately headed to the injured list. At 32, Gonsolin was once a solid Dodgers starter (2019–2022) with strong strikeout numbers and a decent ERA, though luck played a role. Since then, he’s battled elbow issues, underwent Tommy John surgery in 2023, missed all of 2024, and had another procedure in 2025 before becoming a free agent. Now, with the Royals’ pitching depth decimated by injuries, Gonsolin’s current status might be an advantage — if he’s ready by next offseason, he could be a key piece in rebuilding their rotation for 2027.
