What? Dayton picked him up for cash considerations. Its a no-lose thing.

I think this guy can provide us speed at CF and on the bases, we have nothing to lose, i mean they gave up cash

Bannister, Bloomquist, Teahen Drawing Interest
By Ben Nicholson-Smith [July 31 at 9:22am CST]
FRIDAY, 9:22am: Juan C. Rodriguez of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel says the Royals rejected overtures from the Marlins on Bannister. He wonders whether the next best thing for Florida might be to bring Carl Pavano back. We've heard surprisingly little about Pavano lately. He projects to fall short of Type B status, so there's no point in the Indians keeping him.

I wonder wtf we are being offered for all these rejected trades from DM...

Buster Olney said the Yankees called on Bannister, but said they wanted the Royals to pick up his salary in any trade. The ****ing Yankees.

Also said, the Yankees were interested in Bannister and Bloomquist, but when asked what they would give up for them, they said "nothing."

ROFL

They were joking about this on Sportscenter a little while ago.

"You guys suck give us a couple players for some crap"

I can get Bloomquist but Bannister shouldn't go for "nothing".

10:16am: Ken Rosenthal and Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports say the Brewers made an offer for Bannister but the Royals chose not to counter it. The Royals would have to be bowled over to move the 28 year-old righty.

Apparently people think they can bully the royals on trades cause we have an idiot GM...but i wonder if DM is acting like Ricciardi on the phone and asking a TON...im glad he isn't stupid just to give the guys away for nothing. Banny and Teahen def. are worth something solid, esp with Washburn being traded now.

It does sound like the assclowns think we are just going to give away players. If noones willing to deal, I'm glad we stand pat.

Hey... let's trade the retarted kid 3 pennies for his 1 quarter... he'll never know the difference....

**** those teams....

Glad that DM has such a strong reputation as a shrewd negotiator.

He's the new king carl

soooo we aren't going to make the minors better and we aren't going to make the majors better. We are going to camp with basicly the same team next year looks like.

We need to have enough money to re-sign Buck, Teahen, Jacobs, and DeJesus.

This year was a fluke. The entire ****ing sack of ****ing shit was a ****ing fluke. Forget the large sample size and the career statistics for these players. All a ****ing fluke. Trust the process. /Dayton I'm the dumbest ****ing GM in the league Moore/

Well the good thing is if we go into next year with the same shit there won't be any excitement. It will be 90 losses right off the bat (pun intended)

Trade Deadline is over, woohoo go royals!
