I am very frustrated by this. Just another cluster**** by the Royals.
All in the name of DM saving DM's job.
Disgusting.

From what I have read, it was going to take us severely overpaying to get Sanchez to even sniff our way. His people are willing to take a bit less to go to a proven winner. I hear the Dodgers are still in on him, even after the Greinke deal. The Dodgers have some crazy money coming in their TV deal.
I'd be all for dumping Frenchy, but no one is going to take him for his salary. We're basically stuck with that salary. Even if we deal him, we will either have to take on a similar salary in what we get in return, or we will have to pay a large portion of his salary for any team to make a trade...
