See, as disappointing as this season has been that's been the funniest thing. That trade looked like a disaster on paper, but in a vacuum it's the only thing that's worked. All the other elements they were banking on fell through. If Hosmer and Moose and Butler have the seasons we expect, this team is right in the mix. Shields has helped the rotation immensely... and Myers honestly hasn't been any better than Lough, and has a Francoeurish K/BB ratio. He looks like a Royals prospect. He's only 22 though, so it'll be interesting to see if Tampa can beat that out of him.
