The Gil Meche sweepstakes are over, and the Kansas City Royals are the winners.

ESPN's Steve Phillips reports Thursday the Royals and Meche have agreed to terms on a 5-year deal, pending a physical. Financial details were not immediately available.

Meche, a six-year veteran, has a career record of 55-44 and a 4.65 earned-run average, all with the Seattle Mariners. He was 11-8 for the Mariners last season with a 4.48 ERA.

The Toronto Blue Jays and Chicago Cubs also were in the running for Meche.
