The Mets starting pitching is shaping up to be pretty stellar, I don't think they make that move.

Baltimore maybe.

Also, thats fine.

But based on the Garza trade, as well as most deadline deals, it would take a whole lot more than Wong to turn the deal.

I'm curious though, why do you guys not want to sign Santana back?

Draft pick and he is up and down. Not worth the contract for a smaller payroll club.

we would if he didn't want a ton.


not sure the Royals can go above 90 million on the payroll and they are at 80 now

We don't have any money for one. Two even if we did its hard for teams to park 12m+ in one starter, we'd have 2 next year if we did that and no market our size does that.

That's something Detroit or Texas does.

Royals have had two studs this year in Shields and Santana. In a similar discussion earlier this year, duncan made a great point about focusing an extension on the pitcher who works primarily fastball and change-up, as opposed to the guy who works fastball and slider.

I'll take it, but will gladly give it to Deez if he wants it. Or if ALnorth is reading, he's DUE for a thread.

Chris Sale has a 1.02 WHIP for the season and is 6-9 for the White Sox w/ the worst run support in MLB.

God this team sucks

So, why is wong treated like he is gods gift to second base prospects on this sight? Simply because hamas, who clearly illustrated he knows next to nothing about baseball, said so? Wong wouldd probably be the fifth best prospect in the royals system right now. The dude is super overrated on this site. Also, a half year of santana is underrated. He would be an instant number two starter for a playoff contender and drastically improves a teams playoff viability. Not that us royals fans would understand that playoff performance is what really counts.
