Because the Royals have zero divisional opponents in California. The Padres have the Giants and Dodgers as well as a few 'rivalry' games in California via Interleague play. The Padres probably play about 100 more games in California than the Royals do when all is said and done. But I don't think money is going to ultimately drive this. It might have if Boras could've gotten the bidding war off the ground he was trying to get going but it appears that nobody bought into his bullshit. So instead he's trying to find a 'mystery team' to push a price that I think everyone knows has gone stagnant. The question is how badly Hosmer wants to go back to Southern California. Given the high odds of most of his teammates going elsewhere, I'm not sure how much appeal the Royals would still hold as 'family', but there will be some inertia there. The Royals can probably hang with what the Padres will ultimately draw the line at, but if he wants to go back to SoCal, there's just not a lot that KC can do about it.

You know Hos is from Florida, right? Moose is the one from SoCal.

That would be Boras trying to drive the price up.

The talk of Hosmer coming back will die down after the end of December when the push for season ticket sales and 18 game packages dwindles. They've been doing alot of advertising for them the past month.

Right. In November Moore even made it sound like if there wasn't alot of competition for Hosmer he could be re-signed. I believe he even specifically mentioned Boston during the conversation.
