    Cueto to KC?

    One day after a Cueto deal was apparently halted by medical issues, a deal is on, Ken Rosenthal says.

    I saw it on twitter, but was waiting for it to go on ESPN. Haven't seen what got sent back. As a Tigers fan, I almost stood up and yelled SELL NOW!

    From what I've read, it seems like a good haul for Cueto.

    Re: Report: Cueto to KC
    Finnegan-Lamb-Starling (if he's the final piece) seems like a very good haul to me.

    KCs 1 and 2 prospect by ba I think. Not bad Walt!

    I guess we'll have to see if this was worth it for KC. Isn't Cueto a free agent after this season? Seems a lot to give up for three months, looks like the Royals are go big (WS champs) or bust. Then again at least somebody is making bold moves.

    Cueto to KC?

    While they wind up being rentals more often than not KC does still gain the inside tract on getting him on a long term contract

    Yea Cueto is a FA to be and he's looking for big money. I don't know what exactly what but the rumors are his agent was looking 20-30 mil.

    Re: Cueto to KC?

    Royals needed a front line starter and they get one without dealing Mondesi or Almonte. Kinda have to pull the trigger on something like that when you're a legitimate world series candidate in a clustered AL. Shots fired. Astros and Royals make the first biggest splashes, who saw that coming?

    Hopefully Chapman, Phillips, and Leake are next. We need some offensive guys that don't have ???.
