So basically we could have afforded to keep him all these years.

This deal is stupid if they trade Butler and get no offense back.
It seems as if it's almost a certainty that Butler gets moved if this goes through. |

Fowler traded to Astros....Also the Tigers are looking hard at Choo. Royals have to get a bat to add to this offense.
Astros acquired OF Dexter Fowler and a PTBNL from the Rockies for RHP Jordan Lyles and OF Brandon Barnes. The announcement was first made on the Rockies' official Twitter feed Tuesday evening. Fowler has been dangled by Colorado for several months and is now finally headed to Houston, where he will start in center field. The 27-year-old hit .263/.369/.407 with 12 homers and 19 steals in 119 games this past summer. He is under contract through 2015. |

Why do you say that it is a certainty?

Sounds like the Royals would need to get rid of his $$$ to pay for Beltran. Also Beltran may need to DH at times.

I don't see his potential signing as a definite sign of trading Butler. How many days out of the field does Beltran really need? 20? 30?
We play what, 11 or so in a national league park. Billy sits the bench or plays for Hosmer depending on the pitcher. Or Beltran sits. I think this gives you more flexibility in the lineup, with all three playing together most of the time. I think lots of people are underestimating Beltran's ability to still play in the field. |

The lineup looks better with Butler still in it while adding Beltran.
