Let's hope Luke's UCL problem will cure with rest. I'm not that optimistic, however...so many of these UCL problems end up with TJ surgery.

Santana to fill the rotation spot Luke was striving for, and to consequently increase the BP depth? Like to think so, but I'll bet Santana sticks to his guns and continues to demand more $ than he's worth. Royals would sign him, but not for that much $.

It's time to act on Santana, even if for just 1 year and unrestricted next offseason.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

1y/12m should get it done, right?

RT from Buster Olney:

RT@dSoldevila: Source: Santana has no plans to hire a new agent. Could negotiate his own contract

If he's looking for $50 million over four years then I'd offer 12 or 12.5 for one year with a clause that allows for a trade to a contender if the Royals aren't in the hunt by a certain date, and work from there. Sure, he'd be unrestricted (I think) at the end of the season, but if no one is willing to give up the draft pick for this guy then KC might as well take their chances for a quality No. 2 in Santana. The time is now and it's a short window the Royals have given themselves for a playoff run.

Sure, they goofed and overpaid for Vargas. That doesn't mean you just stomach the mistake. I can't imagine the Royals with a payroll over $100 million, but it would be worth it for a better shot at the playoffs. Outside of Shields nothing is a given. We don't know what KC can get from Duff' and Ventura. Will Chen be able to start more than a half season? Vargas is worse than Santana, and Guthrie is a longshot to match last season's production. No one wants Davis to start again. Santana could really solidify the staff. Sure, he could regress as well but another quality arm can only help.

Despite word Santana will take a 1-year deal, Moore says Royals "moving forward" w/out him. "The candidates for our rotation are in-house."

It certainly seems Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!). 

In the Royals defense, Santana could be asking for 17 million for the 1 year contract. Do we know what his price is?

I feel like there's always been a Nebraska day. Last year's was the amazing Red Sox game. It was stupid they picked a premium (and red) opponent for the NU day
