The Royals can still screw this up, but dont pretend that this time isnt different.

I just hope we don't get fleeced if we decide to trade Grienke. Down here people are pretty much resigned to the Rangers losing Cliff Lee but they don't want to give up top prospects to get Grienke. They point out last season and say he's not as good as Coby Lewis. IMO a motivated Grienke returns to Cy Young form, the dude straight up quit last year down the stretch.
