The Kansas City Royals made a positive step in building toward the 2025 season after agreeing on a three-year contract extension with veteran pitcher Michael Wacha on Sunday.

Although the Royals' postseason journey ended at the hands of the New York Yankees in the ALDS, the franchise's decision to extend Wacha will please fans.

Following the former NLCS MVP's extension, several of his Royals' teammates and their wives celebrated Wacha's new three-year deal. The All-Star pitcher's wife, Sarah shared the celebratory messages in her Instagram story.

"So, so happy for y'all (and us)," All-Star pitcher Cole Ragans' wife Tori wrote.

"Wacha's are back," Royals star Bobby Witt Jr.'s fiancee Maggie Black wrote.
