I wouldn't want them to do that deal. Trumbo is a streaky, one-dimensional player whose one dimension would be damnpened playing at the K. You can get Chris Carter, who's 80-90 percent of the player, for 50 percent of the annual salary, for one year.

Much less risk.

And my favorite name in that group - Luis Valbuena - isn't even in that list.

Valbuena/Alvarez
Napoli
Morrison
Moss
Carter

Probably in about that order. Would imagine that market will start to move now that Trumbo is off the board. Likely means Alvarez is off the board for the O's (which is good for KC - that's a tough situation to compete with).
