Hunter Dozier struck out last night for the first time in eight games.
He also went 3-for-5 with a 2B. Hitting .341 since going to Omaha. |

Dozier is 25 in August. If he continues this the Royals have an issue next year figuring out what to do with him and Cuthbert. I just cant see them in AAA next year.

Unless they move him to the outfield. He's played 12 games in left this year so crazier things have happened. Trade Bonifacio, move Dozier to RF? It can be done, if they wanted to. It's a good problem to have.

Why are people excited for a wild card? Toronto/Bos/Balt are very likely getting 3 playoff spots, 80% chance or so. And a 60% chance only two of them do.....which leaves 1 playoff spot.
Are we going to emerge from a potential Blue Jays/Houston/Detroit/Yankees and maybe White Sux scrum? |

I understand your point of view though. You would probably still be watching the DVR recording of game 162 of the regular season and miss the WC game completely.

Maybe Dozier could DH next year and spell Hos a little at first. Maybe also use Cuthbert in the Colon role. |

Given all that has conspired against us this year (injuries, underperformance), I'm OK with keeping the Mondesis and Doziers that could form the foundation for 2018 and beyond, and just give it another whirl in 2017 with most of the returning cast (Volquez and Morales likely excepted) and a few tweaks. Now if we can make the wild card without trading key chips, then great. I just wouldn't want to mortgage the future for a coin flip game. Because if we don't make the postseason this year, I'll just spend the winter re-watching my 2015 World Series Blu-ray set for the 100th time. (I might add that if the Royals brass really don't believe in Dozier, like they didn't Wil Myers, and they think he's at peak value, then they should move him. Just don't do it because you think it's the key to making the WC.) |

My proposals to trade Dozier and/or Bonifacio would only be for a starter(s) with multiple years of control. If the only offer on the table is for a half year rental for a chance at a WC birth, then hell no.

IMO, Bonafacio and Mondesi are off limits and until the Royals figure out what they're doing with Hosmer, Dozier should be as well. |
