Looks like Cueto to Royals is a done deal:

FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports that the Royals have completed a deal to acquire Johnny Cueto from the Reds.
The two clubs nearly finished a deal on Saturday before it fell through because of a physical issue with one of the players slated to go to the Reds. However, it appears they've agreed to a revised proposal. There's no word yet on what the Reds will receive in return, although Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports notes that Brandon Finnegan was discussed in trade talks. Cueto is a perfect fit for Kansas City, as the Royals were in desperate need of a big-time starter and are built for another postseason run in 2015. The righty's fantasy value receives a big boost, as he'll benefit greatly from Kauffman Stadium and the Royals' defense.

If my boy Yordi does not pitch lights out today, he may be back in the minors tonight.
