According to Dick Kaegel of MLB.com, the Royals have apparently cooled on the idea of signing Jose Guillen. Royals' GM Dayton Moore says he's "intrigued by other possibilities", meaning the Royals may not sign Guillen after all.

The Kansas City Royals don't see another outfield option better than Jose Guillen, unless the price for Andruw Jones drops dramatically.

According to the Kansas City Star, the Royals plan to go hard after Guillen, and the free agent told the media in the Dominican Republic that he could reach a deal soon, which could mean before the Winter Meetings conclude on Thursday.
