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.

What's it hurt to sign a couple of 26 year olds who have had some major league success to one year deals? Maybe one of them turns into Carlos Pena, as someone mentioned earlier. These aren't "losing" free agent moves. I like both of these better than Matt Diaz for 2 years at $8M. There isn't much out there in the bargain bin; we signed two 26 year olds with some semblance of upside for one year. If neither work out, no big deal, move on to the prospects in our system.

rule V draft is done. We did not select anyone else other than those two pitchers this morning. In the AAA phase we also lost a pitcher I never heard of (Starling De La Rosa) to Texas.

Zack Greinke-S- Royals Dec. 9 - 3:57 pm et


Jon Heyman of SI.com reports that the Royals are trying to involve the Yankees in talks for Zack Greinke.
Meanwhile, the Yankees are hesitant to risk having him in New York City. Greinke has struggled with anxiety issues in the past and had the Yankees on his no-trade list this past season. According to Heyman, the Rangers, Brewers, Nationals, Dodgers and Blue Jays are currently "deep in the mix" for the ace-right-hander.

If true, we obviously covet Jesus Montero (the Yankees 5-star catching prospect)

If the reports were true, I would have moved Soria last season for Montero and another piece or two.

Honestly Montero is a great hitting prospect but I'm not sure where he fits in on our squad.

I know you mainly want to acquire top talent and let it all work out but I'm not sure that is the best strategy considering how advanced our top hitting prospects are.

Assuming he stays at C. The Yankees are talking about letting him challenge for the starting job in the spring, but who knows how much of that is legit and how much might be propaganda to boost his trade value in the offseason?

His bat is supposed to be SO good, though, I ask the board: Does it matter to you? Would you acquire him just for the bat, and if he can't hack it at C just shift him to 1B/DH?

While they're great prospects, there is still too much unknown about all of them. Anyone going to bet on the ML success of Moose? After watching Gordon destroy AA and AAA (and with Moose's inability to walk), I'm not.

Frenchy and Melky were signed pretty cheap. Hell the Royals have been trying to get Melky for sometime. Bannister and I think Reggie Sanders were offered for him at one point.

Look at what the NY hype machine has made of Derek Jeter.

Hell, look at what it made of Melky Cabrera.

It is not exclusive to their major league roster. Yankees prospects are just as hyped as their major league counterparts - remember when Ian Kennedy was so good that he couldn't be traded for Johan Santana?

Be very VERY cautious when trading for Yankee or Bosox prospects.

interesting report from Jason Stark. (in his "winners and losers" section)

Quote:
3. Kansas City Royals

OK, we admit this is a premature "winners" award, because the Royals haven't actually traded Zack Greinke yet. But this week's developments put them in a better position to pull off this monster deal than they've been in at any time this winter.

On their way out of Disney World on Thursday, officials of two different teams delivered the same message: When they arrived at these meetings, they thought there was no way the Royals would trade their ace this winter. By the time they spun out the revolving door, they'd changed their minds -- and predicted it was now even "likely."

The price never changed all week. It's still going to take what one NL exec described as "five premium pieces" to make this deal happen. But the Royals were smartly treading water this week, waiting for Lee to sign. And once that happened, they knew, Greinke would represent the only difference-making starter out there for teams such as the Rangers, Nationals, Blue Jays, Marlins and others to explore.

Meanwhile, teams that spoke with the Royals believe that they're now more motivated to trade him because they recognize this is the time to strike -- when there's no real competition on the market -- and the reality has finally hit them that Greinke clearly wants out. "What can they tell him to keep him motivated -- that 'We'll be good in 2014?'" one AL exec said. "That's not going to fly. So now's the time, and I think they know it."
