Royals Acquire Ervin Santana
By Ben Nicholson-Smith [October 31 at 3:54pm CST]
The Royals have acquired Ervin Santana from the Angels, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reports (on Twitter). It's not yet clear what the Angels are obtaining in return for Santana.


The Angels had limited interest in exercising Santana's 2013 option, but the Royals appear to consider it reasonable. The Royals will presumably exercise Santana's $13MM option instead of paying him a $1MM buyout.

The 29-year-old posted a 5.16 ERA with 6.7 K/9 and 3.1 BB/9 in 178 innings this past season. He had completed at least 220 innings with ERAs below 4.00 in 2010 and 2011, however.

If I find out KC dealt a bigtime prospect for him, that'll make my day. :)

I really like this move for the Royals. Santana still has pretty good stuff and they are buying low. KC needs to take some risks to improve their pitching staff, and this seems like a pretty good one to me.

I don't see them giving up a big name for Santana. His stock is way too low right now for KC to trade away one of the key pieces of their future to pick him up.

As a Salary dump for the Angels? I think they are thinking of shopping Haren and it may happen by Friday too.

Just saw something flash on the bottom line w/Haren & Santana. Hopefully Haren to the Twins. They need arms that can do anything ...

Guessing this means we won't be seeing Jake Odorizzi at Kaufmann anytime soon....
