ChiefsPlanet - Royals 2012 Kansas City Royals Repository Thread

Seriously. This lineup will be stacked next year if:
1) Hosmer figures it out.
2) Frenchy and Yuni are no longer in the lineup.
3) Myers and Gio/Falu take their places.

I do think we are going to trade Gio or we are waiting to see if we can trade Yuni prior to calling him up. It has to be one or the other, right?

I would prefer Falu and Getz. Gio and Falu both had pretty equal opportunity this season. Falu was such a better hitter. Package Gio any way we need to in order to get rid of Frenchy or throw him in a deal if need be to acquire someone at the deadline.

FWIW this one knows the whole team inside and out. He thinks Wil Myers should have replaced Frenchy at the break. Everyone knows that except....

Looking at trade possibilities for Broxton and Mijares

Myers is in a slump right now, his batting is down to .285 and his OPS is around .937 or so.

Did the same thing in lower A ball leagues as well IIRC. He is getting bored with the competition it would seem.

Pretty sure Myers was let down going back to Omaha after the AS break...

Please let frenchy somehow get traded

I hear ya Oz- but anybody who trades for Frenchy right now is out of their freaking minds.

Right now would anyone here consider trading Hosmer? I still love the guy- but this season long slump has me concerned. I'm guessing we'd get a pretty good haul in return for him.

Someone traded for Sanchez.

The only idiots who would trade for Frenchy right now are the Royals. I'm expecting us to sign him to a long term contract by the middle of August.

Who's your first basemen if we traded him?

I could see if we got a haul of a major league ready top of the line arm under control for 5 years and another up and comer and a lottery ticket pulling the trigger. We need starting pitching that BAD.

If he lets stuff like that affect him, he deserves to stay down in Omaha. If he's still slumping, then Moore is justified in keeping him down.

He's ready, and he's a much better option than Frenchy. Thus, there's really no defending Moore's insistence on running out, easily, one of the worst everyday players in MLB. My guess is that Frenchy is statistically the worst, but I haven't verified that.

I am just hoping the Royals back off their ML ready SP shit soon so they can trade their real chips like mijares, broxton and hopefully package some minor leaguers with frenchy somewhere. Myers is ready slump and all there is absolutely nothing Jeff Francouer offers to this team

Basically, just no A or lower guys. As that's where the Royals' system is deep.
