That's a lot of money to spend for a team to still be stuck with Infante as the starting second baseman.

With backup options in Colon and Mondesi. Strike while the iron is hot.

Moore has already said he is not wed to Omar at 2nd... Colon is going to get a shot.

The 2015 Royals had the best record in the American League with Infante as the starting second baseman.

I think they'll be OK.

Also could always make another deadline move if needed. He is still above avg defensively.

Steamer loves 2016 Kennedy:

11-11 3.90era. 182ip. 172k-58bb. 2.2war

I'd kill to plug that into the rotation this year.

Agreed.

Print 'em
to the 'ship!

Volquez, Medlen, Ventura, Kennedy, Duffy, Young, Almonte, maybe Zimmer. Not bad.

Our defense, park, and bullpen turn that into an above average rotation. Put that rotation in Philly and it'd be awful.

Forgot to throw Gee in the mix.

Any chance the Ming Wang might be a 1 inning bull pen piece?

I'll take the over on innings and under on the ERA.

It's a very nice fit. And my Jeff Francoeur-to-Royals-like obsession with Kennedy can finally be satisfied.

I have hopes for Gee also. His story is kind of like Madson's. Madson, before injury was a damn good closer for the Phillys. In 2014, Gee was the Met's opening day starter. Then, injuries got him. If he's healthy, he could contribute.

I'm not as optimistic about Wang.
