The Royals discussed a potential Ross Detwiler trade with the Nationals, but talks didn’t advance, James Wagner of the Washington Post tweets. The Royals saw the lefty reliever and Missouri native as “more of a backup option,” Wagner notes. Detwiler, 28, posted a 4.00 ERA with 5.6 K/9 and 3.0 BB/9 in 63 innings with the Nats last season.

The Twins are offering Santana roughly 4/50. I'm assuming Santana is waiting, hoping a contending team matches or beats that, because he's got to know the Twins are doing nothing in 2015.

Oh, and speaking as a Royals fan, I approve of that Cespedes trade.

Wouldn't 4/54 be a good deal for us?

Or do we not want to touch 4 years?

They're going to lose Max Scherzer. Cueto is good, but he's not as good as Max. Losing Porcello also hurts their rotation and adding Cespedes helps their offense by about the same measure. Neutral move, really. Anyone who is freaking out because the Royals have "fallen back" at the moment would also have to say the same thing about the Tigers.

I'm curious how the team will operate in 2019 and beyond once we get out of the God awful television contract. Just a thought.

I'm not freaking out about the Royals, at all.
Our offense, literally, cannot be worse that it was last year. We won 89 games. We're fine. World Series swagger alone is going to make up for losing James Shields. I honestly believe that. |

Josh Vernier @JoshVernier610 2m2 minutes ago
Duf/Ventura or combo of 1 of HDH & top prospect. RT @StevenCroft2 what do royals have that would be interesting to clubs to acquire a bat? |

I would give Herrera and our top prospect for Upton in a heartbeat.

It sounds like KC is sticking to its guns in not wanting to go 4 years on Santana. That's the only complication I can see if that's where the Santana market is resting. Very reasonable AAV for a guy of Santana's quality (200 IP, No. 2-type upside).
