I understand being a cynical Royals fan... but this is just not anywhere close to reality.

The Royals are exploring a longer extension with Holland and might even get that done before the season starts. He also has two full years of control left before he'd be a FA, even if they don't.

If they can't work out an extension, they MIGHT trade him after the 2015 season. Maybe.

But considering he's a reliever, there's really no guarantee he's still good, let alone great, at that point. Short shelf lives on most of these guys.
