He probably is. Hes a solid major league player, dont get me wrong. But go to a royals game and listen tonwhat the casual fan thinks. I overheard some of them touting Lough as a perennial all star and better than Alex Gordon. Just cuz a guy is hitting .300 at the time doesnt mean hes going to do it after 1500 at bats. Ive been saying for a while now that ppl are going to be disappointed with guys like Perez and Escobar regress back to their mean. Its gonna be the same w Lough. Hes a good player, but there is absolutely no way he will be a perennial .300 hitter.

Everybody keep on telling yourself that was a good trade. Got rid of your best offensive and major league ready prospect and a guy in Odorizzi that would have been in the rotation this yr. 6 years of control for Will Myers. Just renting Shields.

And none of us would be talking about the Royals right now because we would be so far out of it as usual due to no pitching.

Odorizzi in the rotation this year? ROFL

This is simply not true. Before last night's game, Shields and Davies had combined for .3 WAR. Myers was 1 WAR.

So Myers + 2 RLP = better than where we're at now.

Hes worse than Davis? ......OK

Yes, i think he is.

No.
****ing.
Way.

Are you kidding me? Odorizzi's been slapped around routinely in the majors. At least Davis has had some success at this level.

Routinely? He's pitched 18 innings this year.

Last year? He got lit up for the Royals damn near every time he pitched.

How many innings has he pitched in the majors?

25?

Yeah he's routinely been slapped around

Seven.

I don't give a **** how many innings he has pitched. When he has, he has not been better than Davis. Period.

Point one
