Well, I like where the Royals are today at the major league level more than I did yesterday. It really all comes down to winning BOTH this year and next. If they can't and Shields walks, it's inexcusable. We're talking 90+ wins and a wild card at the very, very least.
Another angle on this - Is this GMDM's way of giving a big "**** you" to his tightass owner that doesn't want to loosen the purse strings but still want to be competitive? I mean face it....under the restrictions of a "70 million dollar cap", DM's means of fielding a competitive team was quite limited.
