Wily Mo "Not Available"

From the Kansas City Royals MLB site:

Are the Royals going to stop looking for a power-hitting outfielder? I know they were pursuing Cincinnati's Austin Kearns at one point. What's wrong with the Reds' Wily Mo Pena?
-- Scott A., Independence, Mo.

The search has stalled, but general manager Allard Baird will keep trying throughout Spring Training and beyond, if necessary. The Royals no doubt are still interested in Kearns and other young sluggers. Wily Mo, I've been told, is not available.

Interesting.
