Jon Heyman recently posted a list of projected free agent deals this off-season. He utilized an 'unnamed expert' and then also provided his own guesses. You can take each for what it is worth, but I thought the 'unnamed expert's' suggestions might prove for some interesting discussion as we work off our post election hangovers.
You might also want to check out SterlingRice's FanPost of several days ago that offers some additional speculation on the subject.
The Ervin Santana deal is in place and the Royals are stuck with it. Knowing that and taking the rather large leap that Heyman's expert is close on the projected price tag, how would you proceed if David Glass handed you the reigns to the Kansas City Royals?
