This is the last few paragraphs of the story -

So between these two pitchers, who would be a better possibility for Kansas City?



Side Note – I’ve read where Mark Buehrle wanted to move home to St. Louis and play for the Cardinals. Could he help Kansas City and would he consider playing close to home but with the Royals?

I'd take Kennedy because I think he has better raw stuff, Eiland has a history with him, and he's got more upside, IMO. I think Kennedy could have a Volquez-like bump up in Kansas City. He's also a giant red-ass, which I kind of dig.

Gallardo' plummeting K rate makes him the secondary target here, IMO. He'd still be good for KC and be a stabilizing, consistent force in their rotation.
