No.

His average fastball velocity was down about 1 mph from a season ago. He dealt with back trouble early in the year, which affected his velocity a bit. He also is entering his early 30s, when most guys lose a tick or two (without steriods).

His fastball has fallen off about 3 MPH over the past 6 years, which is not unusual. And he has had tremendous success with decreased velo, because he's never been a guy who relied on blowing people away with velocity. Movement and control are his keys, and he still has plenty of both.

Go **** yourself. Why do you even open this thread?

Because I think it would be a terrible idea.

It's unlikely that Myers' HR production will not translate reasonably well at the next level. Even if he hits .250, we need a guy who can hit 30+ HRs.

Trading him would be a mistake at this point, given the equally appealing talent that we have that is farther from the league.

If we did trade him, I'd want a pitcher in the league right now, a hot pitching prospect in AAA, and another really good prospect position player in no lower than AA.

There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

That ****ing clapping gif.

Congratulations to Gordon for winning the Gold Glove.

So duncan can put him in his place?

Cool that they had him on the show too.

Love Gordon

If a player has 12 teams that are on his no trade list you can bet the Royals are one of the twelve.

I thought that too

You're talking about Haren?

He only has 8 teams on his no-trade clause at this point.

Does anyone know what teams?
I would think the royals would be one of the eight even

Would a high caliber player ever even think that a team like the Royals would be worth blocking?
