I understand that Escobar is a good player but I don't see him in any All Star Games yet...Cain is completely unproven who can't stay healthy....Odorizzi from all accounts is NOT an ace, more like a 3rd starter...and Jeffress or whoever sucks.
All star game selections is what you're using? Come on, man. It's a popularity contest. Dan Uggla, Mike Napoli and Derek Jeter were all starters last night.

Escobar has a strong case for best SS in the American League this year. If he plays at this level for the rest of his time in KC, the Royals win the trade based on that alone, regardless of what is received from Jake Odorizzi and Lorenzo Cain.
