The Royals may have done a good job of building up their farm system, but Greinke wonders if they will make a difference by the time his contract expires after the 2012 season.
"There's no reason for me to get real excited about it," he said, "because the chance of more than one of them making a major impact by the time my contract is up is pretty slim."
Greinke has had an aggravating year. He isn't pitching as well as last year, adn even when he does his team can't get him any run support. Greinke has 2 years left on his deal, and what he is saying in his quote is 100% correct. Even if all the Royals prospects eventually workout, it won't be until his contract runs out. The Royals should serious consider dealing Greinke in the offseason, unless they can somehow sign him long term. The list of teams interest should be very long, and you would think KC could get a lot of prospects in return.
Random guess, but I say Texas would be a great fit.
