Greinke Thinks Tampa and Miami are Attractive Options to Play for One Day

[Big Z]

Royals Zack Greinke interested in Rays, Marlins?
In Kansas City, Royals fans celebrated when Zack Greinke told the New York media he'd rather pitch for the Royals in the playoffs than the Yankees, and while it's true that Greinke would probably prefer not to pitch in New York, he could make most any other big-league market work. Even during the news conference announcing his extension, he mentioned Tampa and Miami as places "I would like more than this," because he's from Florida. Hell, what about St. Louis? That's a smaller market with a team that consistently competes and a fan base that would both love him and respect his space -- plus, he could hit. The point is, as much ownership as Kansas City feels from having watched Greinke rise, fall and rise again, baseball is a business and Greinke is already tired of the losing. If his contract comes up without him having experienced at least some team success, it will probably be impossible for the Royals to keep him. -- KC Star

the way kansas city's been declining options, it could happen

KANSAS CITY, MO—In an expected move Wednesday, the City of Kansas City declined to pick up their 2010 option on the Royals baseball club, ending the team's 41-year tenure with the Missouri municipality. "It was time to move in another direction," Kansas City mayor Mark Funkhouser said at a press conference. "There were some vested incentives that would have automatically kicked in if the Royals had finished higher than last place, or won more than one championship in their existence. But we just couldn't afford to make another mistake like that 18-year extension back in 1991." The Royals have generated some mild interest from other cities, including Portland, OR and Copenhagen, though the Danish capital is said to be leaning heavily toward acquiring a public pool or parking lot.
