Would have to come cheap, since both Wilson Betemit and Mike Aviles have been displaced and have no long-term future there.  Aviles appears to have found his stroke after being shipped to AAA, with 4 HR in his last 10 games.  He has a track record of MLB success that LRod doesn't have (he was injured in 2009), and would be a good semi-platoon partner for Kennedy.
Also, KC doesn't really have a leadoff hitter (Alex Gordon has been mostly leading off), so they might even take a flyer on Figgins if we ate the great bulk of the money.  These are the guys who took Yuni off our hands.
Neither one is an exciting bat, just an upgrade from Figgins and Wilson for the days when Wedge will rest AK and/or Ack.
