I’ve been good. Got a new job last September (I think I may have mentioned it) and been absolutely crazy since. My position is somewhat of a hybrid between business development and a district manager position. I have oversight over a network of independent businesses, and determining the network membership as well as working with each location to hire and train staff, develop marketing plans, analyze processes, costs and help each of our network partners with their expansion plans. I have 11 states in my territory…so yeah my computer time has been somewhat limited.

Grienke question #949847::I don’t know the Royals that well, but I wouldnt’ guess Texas as one of the likely ending spots for Greinke. My top guesses after the Yanks would be Boston, Chicago White Sox, Atlanta or Los Angeles (either team) as those are expected to be the big spenders this offseason.

I would like to discuss a mock negotiation for Grienke using the Texas Rangers as the trade partner.This is going to be helpful if A: the Rangers fail to re-sign Cliff Lee (unlikely. he’s a Ranger forever, now) or B: the Rangers decide to really bend the Yankees over and take away both the top pitchers available this offseason. (GAWD, THIS WOULD BE AWESOME)
The new ownership group for the Rangers have said they plan on bringing the Rangers payroll up to the 90 or 100 million dollar range. It currently sits around 60 million. Adding Lee is gonna put them around 85 and after arbitration, it should sit somewhere in the high 90s. If the Rangers could pull off a Grienke trade (which, prospect wise, they have the capacity to do) it would put their payroll in the 105-115 range.
Just curious if there was anyone on here who knew enough about the Royals and their farm to discuss this further.
