Zimmer is untouchable. I expect him to break camp with the team and compete for a rotation spot next Spring. It would take something fierce for Dayton to move a guy who's going to the rotation very soon. Part of me thinks he could help the big league club right now.

Bob dutton got a question about Kyle Smith's stuff, and he said he "got guys out".

Gee Bob, ya think. Dude is an idiot on twitter.

Well he was 2.0 war player last year, this year he is at .4

This feels like the move a GM would make if you told him that he must make the playoffs by the end of 2014 or he's fired.

johnsickels ‏@MinorLeagueBall 6m Smith/Maxwell is shocking. Really. That would get vetoed by some fantasy commissioners

Weird. Cain supposedly was about to come back to the lineup (although we know how that works with the Royals).

If Cain's going on the DL, the trade makes sense. Otherwise, we have 5 OFs, and that would suggest a Maxwell-Lough platoon with Dyson as a Herbie Washington, or occasionally spelling Cain vs. RHP.

I dunno, that kinda seems too fragmented for me. We'll see.

I've always ready Smith probably ends up in the bullpen. If that is the case we have plenty of bullpen help I don't mind moving one that is in A ball.

Not the trade I was looking for, but i think Maxwell helps the team if Cain is hurt long term and is better than Dyson.

0.3 wins.

DM, proving once again, that he's a mother****ing stooge.

He's a Right Handed bat who hits lefties really well, has some speed and some power.. why wouldn't we want him for a smallish pitcher in A ball?

Yeah, this immediately raises questions about Cain.

Sam Mellinger ‏@mellinger 1m I'm not sure what to make of the #Royals trade. I'll be even more confused if the corresponding move isn't Cain to DL.

This only makes sense if Cain is hurt....otherwise this does NOTHING for this year or 2014

duncan_idaho 07-31-2013 02:03 PM
It's about the smallish pitcher's value.

I don't mind moving Kyle Smith for big-league help. I mind moving him in an overpay.

alnorth 07-31-2013 02:04 PM
The trade deadline has passed.

Which doesn't really mean much for a couple hours. Most years, at least 1 or 2 trades take another hour to be known if they were submitted to MLB for approval in the final minutes.

Yay 2b is still shit

I'm telling you, I fully expect to hear Cain to the 60 Day DL

If Cain is hurt, then this makes a lot more sense.
