2010 Kansas City Royals Repository thread
All Royals All The Time!

After consultation with others who peruse the game threads we decided to create this as a repository for all things Royals. Minor league news, AL (ahem) Central (thanks Vonne) news and anything Royals can be found here.

alnorth, me and atleast 5 others will continue the game threads as usual. But if you locate something of interest.. ANYTHING.. deals on apparel, best ways in/out of the stadium, giveaways, great stories from this season or from seasons gone by, rumors, trades, anything.... feel free to post it here.

If a big story breaks, you can still start a thread about it. There is merely an all inclusive thread that will make a easy for us all to keep up with all things Royals.


Welcome! "Grab a Brew... don't cost nuthin"...[spills beer on feet]

Adding him would give us a respectable order:

1. De Jesus (CF)
2. Aviles (2B)
3. Butler (1B)
4. Dunn (RF)
5. Kila (DH)
6. Moustakas (3B)
7. Gordon (LF)
8. Pena (C) Lucas May?
9. Colon (SS)

And wait for Hosmer to take Kila's place, Myers to take Pena's.
Wait, where the hell is Getz, Blanco, Kendall and Fields in that lineup?

First, I agree with the overall premise that the FA class is weak. But I'm throwing serious cash at Crawford (6/108, opening bid) and Adam Dunn (3/45, opening bid).

We have a better chance at Dunn, obviously, but I'd want to try to keep the deal to 3 years, if at all possible.
Signing Crawford would be a big mistake. He is already 29 and is one of the more over rated players in the league. Why would the Royals sign another guy with no power and no ability to get on base? Yea, he can steal some bases, but that isn't worth 6 years and 108 million, at least not for the Royals. I'd much rather keep that money to sign Moose/Hosmer/Myers/anyoneofour23434leftypitchingprospects to long term deals the moment they show the ability to be an elite player, kind of like what the Rays did with Longoria.

He literally turned 29 today.

Last 5 seasons of OBP:
.348
.355
.319
.364
.359

And signing Crawford would not prevent us from locking up our young talent. Not saying ownership might not use it as an excuse...

I also like Jayson Werth. Dunn is clearly my favorite on the list, but Werth could be a good plan B because he's right-handed. With DDJ, Moose, Gordon, Kila around...a right-handed bat might bring good balance, although his power numbers are way down this year.

And those OBP numbers don't even put him in the top 40 in baseball(and the .319 number is just scary). In fact, this is his best year ever statistically and he can't even crack the top 40 in OPS. Dejesus puts up roughly the same numbers and costs half as much, and that's really the point. Speed guys who don't hit for power and have a mediocre OBP/OPS aren't all that tough to come by. Heck, this year, for 1.5 million, we got a guy who has just as many SB's as Crawford and had a .346 OBP to Crawford's career best .359. Is the extra 10 HR's crawford will hit this season worth 14 million more than the guy we had? On a team like the Royals, I don't think it is.

Good points. I could be wrong about this.

Will DDJ still be a Type A free agent despite his injury/missed time? If so, let him walk imo.

All this, especially when we're talking about a guy who's a left fielder only. If he were an elite defensive center fielder, desiring him would have more merit.

I don't think anyone knows, but that was the real kick in the nuts with the injury. Most casual fans only understood that it took away the trade option, but it may have also cost us the Type A/draft picks option as well.
