Kings of Kauffman answers KC Royals questions to start the baseball weekend.

The bad news is rain washed out Friday night’s game between the KC Royals and Toronto; the good news is the clubs will play twice today to make up for the postponement before finishing up their four-game series Sunday. Here are six pre-doubleheader questions to kick off the weekend.

How serious are the KC Royals about Ervin Santana?

The Royals are clearly interested in Santana and believe he can add value to the pitching staff. Why else would they sign him to a minor league deal, invite him to spring training, add him to their Alternate Training Site roster despite an inconsistent spring, select his contract a few days ago, and name him to start the second game of today’s doubleheader?
