Royals Rumors: German, Furcal, Farnsworth

Bob Dutton of the Kansas City Star has the latest on the Royals.

• The Royals signed Esteban German to a one-year deal.
• If they're going to sign Rafael Furcal, club officials say they'd have to trade away Jose Guillen to free-up money, yet there was "scant interest" in Guillen at the Winter Meetings.
• However, the Royals are willing to offer Furcal a four-year deal, something the Dodgers have been reluctant to do.
• The Kyle Farnsworth deal includes a club option for 2011.
• Royals GM Dayton Moore insists that Mark Teahen is staying put.
• Their payroll is down to $70MM after non-tendering John Bale, Joey Gathright, Jason Smith and Jairo Cuevas.
