The Kansas City Royals aren't wasting time locking up one of their top arms out of the bullpen.

The team exercised its $7 million option on reliever Wade Davis on Monday.

Davis was part of a three-headed monster out of the 'pen for the Royals that was instrumental in the team's 2014 playoff run.

The 29-year-old posted a 1.00 ERA in 71 regular-season appearances and recorded 33 holds as manager Ned Yost's setup man.
