Rumors I've heard were 5 years, $75 million is what they were looking for. No one was willing to go that many years or at that salary. THus the one-year deal with an NL team to try to inflate value.

The Royals are going to have to extremely overpay to get any respectable starting pitcher to come here. Fans are delusional if they think someone like Anibal Sanchez is coming here for market rate over a major market team.
