As promised, here's news that's guaranteed to put the Wil Myers trade in some interesting perspective (or at least it did for me). I present to you... a comparison of seasons that led to the player being named minor league player of the year.
STAT PLAYER A MYERS Average: .319 .314 HR: 27 37 ** (Player A has higher power grade. Myers has more HR-friendly park)** SLG: .587 .600 OBP: .375 .387 Ks: 135 140 K rate: 25.9% 26.8% Who is player A? He looks an awful lot like Wil Myers, doesn't he?

For real though, I'm pretty exited. This season is the point where we either sink or swim. Looking forward to seeing which!

I don't know if I "like" the trade, but I've accepted it and moved on. James Shields is the best pitcher we have had outside of Zach Grienke in a long time. If Guthrie can continue to pitch above average and the other spots at least show up better then the garbage in the past then I think we will hit enough to atleast contend.
Before Shields even with Will Myers I wouldn't have been able to say that. However, I still can't shake the feeling that this is the Royals and everything we touch goes bad for us. |
