@jazayerli: A first baseman with a career walk rate of under 4%? Of course they are. 🤦*♂️

Royals' interested in Ryon Healy https://twitter.com/mlbtrroyals/stat...45240857608192

I'm tired of Moore and his complete lack of concern for OBP.

Alt History time.

Wil Myers trade never happens. Royals sign Anibal Sanchez at 5/85 instead. All other transactions (except the ones involved Wade, of course) stay the same. How does 2013-2018 go for us?

I'll start by saying I think that thanks to Odo in 2015, and Wil/Odo in 2016, we make the playoffs in 2015 and 2016 (with a shot at making it in 2013 thanks to Anibal, too) but ultimately, I don't think we end up taking the title. What do you all think?

Should it be reasonable to expect a similar return on Whit that ChiSox got for Eaton? To me that seems pretty reasonable, and both are very similar players.

I do question if Moore has the cajones or skill to pull off such a trade.

This is true.

Vern and Hughley will be much better listening from 10-2 for 610 fans.

The part that sucks is replacing Vern with Binkley. Yeesh. Oh well. I guess the Royals won't be good again for a few years anyway, so really doesn't matter much . . . . .

I think a more realistic comp would be the Ben Zobrist trade the Royals made. One Top 50 prospect and couple projectable Low A guys.

I may be in the minority (and don't give a flying F either way), but I like Ron the Show and was hoping he'd get a bigger role. Unfortunately they put him against Petro who is far and away the best host in KC. He'd be better off sticking to the night show compared to that. Hopefully he can make it to drive time because choosing between Carrington and KK is awful.

So the Royals get Wade Davis for free?

No. I tried to clarify that by saying the transactions involving Wade obviously wouldn't happen since he wouldn't have been traded over.

@jonmorosi: Sources: #Brewers have considered possibility of acquiring Mike Moustakas and moving Travis Shaw to 2B, but pitching may become the more urgent priority following Suter injury. @MLBNetwork @MLB
