Would the team have lost a few more games? Potentially. But when you're losing damn near 100 anyway, who gives a ****.
If a high-quality reliever can generate a potentially high-quality position player or starter, you make that trade every single day when you're a shit club.

I'm not going to spend a second blaming the Royals for not trading Soria when he was the only good thing they had in the pen. Who gives a shit? The Royals. I really don't care what any fan thinks. Fans always know best yet none of them have jobs in MLB. They had one proven commodity and they held onto it. Terrible to some. Fine with me.
