I'm wondering if someone can provide a recap of a conversation I heard this morning on the way to work on either 610 or 810 (Sorry, I know that's not much information). It had something to do with Rex Hudler calling Moustakas out for not hustling and/or pouting, and that he should be sent down. Did anyone else hear that? What did Moose do (or fail to do)? What did Hudler say?
Sorry if Q; hadn't seen it discussed and am curious. |

Yep, even Ned isn't playing him that much anymore. He'll have to go to Omaha eventually.

He did get benched in the most favorable situation a hitter could ever be in last night (bases loaded, no outs). That was hopefully a sign to Moustakas that they were not happy with the effort he put forth in his last AB.

Send Moose down and bring up Irving Falu. Platoon Falu and Tejeda for as long as necessary.

I didn't know you could stand on the base and get hit and you are out.

Can you elaborate on why you want him?
Kendrick is a nice player but not a star, and he probably costs "Star" prices to purchase. There are other targets who offer more offensive upside (Alex Rios, Chase Utley, Mike Morse) at likely lower costs in prospects/trade chips. If you bring in a stop-gap like Utley or Morse, you can sign a similar replacement in FA for about the same money you'd give Kendrick. If you are able to land a guy like Rios that you control for a few more years, don't have to worry as much about a FA bat. I'll put it this way: Rios and Utley are big-enough bats to make a major difference and impact in the KC lineup. Kendrick is a good bat but does not have the same effect.

Falu is really not as good as a lot of KC fans think he is.

Ethier has negative trade value. That's the worst contract in baseball under $100 million. That would be worse than signing broke dick Reggie Sanders.

You really think 91 PAs is a valid sample size?
