I'd trade Bannister. He is nothing that wouldn't be hard to replace. And given a healthy rotation, I would be happy letting Chen replace him if that were the case.

That's how you get Perez for Dye and a cluster**** for Beltran. You want talent in return, but this doesn't necessarily mean advanced prospects or ML-ready ones. |

Hypothetically, someone is willing to trade you Moosetacos for DDJ. Do you do it?
Young, unproven guy with (allegedly) tremendous upside for a solid ML player. If I'm the Royals, I'd want someone like this and another high-quality prospect. A legit throw-in. |

We're never going to win anything if we keep trading away our good players, overpaying has-beens and waiting on prospects. |

I'd still trade DDJ for atleast 2 high level prospects...they are always an 'if' but it's not like we're trading Beltran in his prime here...love DDJ as he works his tail off but he has been known to be injury prone from time to time. That said his value right now is as high as it's ever been. You trade him only for that 'right' haul, anything else tell them to **** off.

Sweeney would like to come to kc for 2012 as game... Mike Sweeney Plans To Be At 2012 MLB All-Star Game In Kansas City Jun 16 10:34p by Joel Thorman A very familiar name to Royals fans plans to be in attendance at the 2012 MLB All-Star Game....probably not as a player though. "My thought was, 'Well, chances are I won't be playing in 2012, but I'd like to be at that game,'" Mike Sweeney said by phone from Seattle. Sweeney, now with the Mariners, said his teammates were very impressed with not just Kauffman Stadium but everything Kansas City has to offer. "For many years I called Kansas City home and for it to be recognized for the All-Star Game, I'm already making plans for July 2012," he said. "Hopefully, we'll see Zack Greinke or Billy Butler or Joakim Soria in the game. Or Mike Moustakas, you never know." Ah, it's good to hear Sweeney's heart is still in the right place. |
