The Royals have offered free-agent right-hander Miguel Batista a three-year, $24 million contract, but Batista also is receiving strong interest from the Cardinals, FOXSports.com has learned.
By signing the 35-year-old Batista, the Cardinals would protect themselves against the possible loss of one of their two free-agent right-handers, Jeff Suppan and Jeff Weaver.
The Royals, who also are pursuing free-agent right-hander Gil Meche, are seeking a veteran stabilizer for their rotation. Meche is expected to land with the Cubs or Blue Jays.

I could think of a lot better ways to blow that kind of money. Let the Royals overpay for him. This guy will cost twice as much (yearly) as Kip Wells (when pitchers get these big deals it makes me so glad we've got Walt on our side. That Wells signing was pure genius)? What is this world coming to!!!
