Option #2

The Rangers and Yankees couldn't sign Cliff Lee. So, do they go after Zack Greinke of the Royals, the 2009 Cy Young Award winner in the American League?
Kansas City General Manager Dayton Moore says the Blue Jays and Nationals are seeking Greinke's services and he thinks they have more prospects to send to the Royals than the Rangers or Yankees.
He's obviously bluffing. The Royals don't want to win. They are content to lose and gobble up the revenue sharing money. If the Yankees really want Greinke all they have to do is throw a couple of minor leaguers KC's way along with a hefty check. They'll take the money before they hold out for prized prospects.
The question that has been brought up before is, does Greinke want to play in New York? Would he be a good fit?
Not everyone can play in New York. Ed Whitson comes to mind immediately as well as that bum Carl Pavano.
If Greinke doesn't want to pitch for the Yankees then I have to seriously question if he wants to win. If it is a choice between pitching for the Royals and Yankees and he picks the Royals, that tells me he's a loser, Cy Young and all.
If I'm Greinke, I want to go to a team that has a chance to go to the World Series. The Royals have no shot. If I'm correct, the Yankees seem to go to the post-season every year (except 2008).
We'll see how this plays out but expect the Yankees to go after Greinke. It would be foolish not to. Unless you think A.J. Burnett will turn it around after last season's disaster. If I'm the Yankees I'm not counting on that happening.
