You're right, they are worth MORE than two years of Greinke.

Maybe it doesnt make sense for Toronto to trade for them because they dont think it fits in their timeframe for contention, but put aside Toronto and look at the players in a vacuum. If the Royals trade Greinke with 2 years left for 2 players similar to Drabek and Snider, they probably have lost that trade.

I'll let you in on a secret here having gone through the experience just last year. It really doesn't matter what they do, the Royals are going to lose this trade, just like the Jays lost the Halladay one. There is no realistic way to get fair value in a trade for a pitcher of their caliber, you just have to get the best you can and get out.
