What Are We Waiting For??!?

It's about time the Royals started signing the players the think will be their core moving forward. Joakim Soria just inked an extension through 2011, with a possible option of extending it to 2014. Thank God. With very few players signed through the next couple of years, it's important that they finish evaluating all their young players and figure out who they're keeping, and who they are tossing aside. Soria has been lights out so far this year, after a great season last year. That extension was a no-brainer. So who's next? It should be Zack Greinke. Out of 10 starts this year, he is 5-2 with a 2.82 ERA. His command has been incredible, and his head seems stable. I actually saw some positive emotion out of the kid when he got out of a jam with 2 men on. There is no doubt that Zack has all the talent to be an ace. With his performance at the end of last year, and the great start he's off to this year, the Royals would be wise to add Zack and his high quality arm to their future core.
