MLB Trade Deadline: No Surprise But Royals Telling Others Greinke, Butler Are Not Available

I think most folks knew this -- or assumed it to be the case -- but Royals pitcher Zack Greinke and first baseman Billy Butler are not available, Jon Heyman of SI.com reports.

One GM in the league has been told both Greinke and Butler are not on the market.

However, that GM wondered if Joakim Soria might be available for the right price. Last year he was reportedly available so, presumably, he is this year.
