The days of Zack Greinke wearing Royals blue could be numbered. The Toronto Sun
reports that the Blue Jays have "inquired" about Greinke's availability, and it sounds like the Royals know what they want in return.
The Royals are asking for two "can't-miss prospects" according to the Sun. Good for them. It's time to cut the cord with 2009's American League Cy Young award winner, and getting a couple of promising prospects is a good start.
The Sun's theory is that Greinke would be a fine consolation prize for teams like the Rangers, Red Sox and Angels -- should they lose the Cliff Lee sweepstakes.
But those greedy Canadians aren't satisfied with plucking just Greinke. They're also asking about Alex Gordon.
Now may be the right time for the Jays to strike. The Royals are in a dealing kind of mood having swapped David DeJesus to the Oakland Athletics for pitchers Vin Mazzaro and Justin Marks. Not a bad place to land, double D.
