Royals deal with Hosmer was just the opposite of the Padres. He would be making less per year the first few years of the deal with a higher salary later on.

The report was we offered 5 years, $100 million. Which is still a ton of money but not exactly what the Padres offered. That's why it looks so rough, they gave him the same deal, but he holds the options to make it an 8 year deal.

Oh I've always thought Mondesi would do this. I just thought the org was ****ing brain dead by bringing him up way to early in the World Series and way to early in general. I said hew as 3 years away back then and Royals fans would flip out at me.

O’Hearn with another moonshot last night. Absolutely possessed since being called up. Between him, Keller, and Mondesi, its been fun.

A Rotation of... Keller Duffy Junis Lopez Kennedy/Fillmyer, And a lineup of... Whit/Cutty (2B/3B) (Depending on if Whit is traded) Mondesi (SS) Soler (RF) O'Hearn (1B) Salvy (C) Gordo (LF) Boni (DH) Phillips (CF) Nicky Lopez (2B) Could be a lot of fun to watch... Goodwin, Herrera, Gallagher and Cutty, (if Whit isn't traded) are solid reserves to round things out as well. And if we have another Boni or Soler situation, they could step into the starting lineup right away. |

I think you have to have an open competition for 3B next spring.... between Dozier, Cuthbert, Gutierrez, Whit(?).... and at first, i think we should let Ohearn have first shot, but he shouldn't be handed the job...I still think Schwindel deserves a look - I love Ohearn but I loved Mark Quinn, Phil Hiatt et al...

Do we really think Moose's market and/or his asking price will be significantly different than last year? Also, with Glass still being in cost cutting mode I'm not sure how much he'd authorize to spend.

Moose is 30 and his numbers dipped this year. That ship has sailed in KC.

Good call! I knew there was someone I was forgetting. I do think we need to find a way to get Phillips 4 AB's a day. There's no other way for a player to finally "click". We watched Mondesi do it after some time, Moose in the same way, and Gordo too.

Sign Moose every offseason, trade him for prospects every mid-season. I like it.
