KC Royals: Should KC Chase Former Phillies Ace Cliff Lee?

The KC Royals are well-known to need rotation help in 2016 after losing Johnny Cueto and Jeremy Guthrie to free agency. Should the Kansas City Royals try to land former Indians and Phillies ace Cliff Lee?

Cliff Lee says he intends to pitch in 2016, according to CBS Sports reporter Jon Heyman:

Cliff Lee has been throwing and he’s received medical clearance. If he finds the right fit, he will pitch in 2016.

Though he is 37-years-old, what makes the possibility interesting is that he was pretty effective the last time he pitched in 2014.
