I think either Boyer or Grimm will be gone when Karns is activated.
And, Clay Buchholz has to be on the Royals MLB roster by May 1st or he can opt out.
That's two good excuses to get rid of them.

Ned said earlier that he sees Karns as the 8th inning guy.

siberian khatru 04-19-2018 02:23 PM

I want to see Karns healthy before I start thinking of him as any kind of bullpen savior.

I'm nervous that the Royals seem to be slow-playing his injury, again.

April 7: The Royals had held out some hope that right-hander Nate Karns, on the disabled list with elbow inflammation, could have been activated by this weekend. That won't happen.

"He's getting closer," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "He threw on the side today. We'd like to get that fluid out soon, just get him going. We need to get him going."


He's becoming Kyle Zimmer Jr.

Royals - Omaha, Nebraska and Springdale, Arkansas
Cardinals - Memphis, Tennessee and Springfield, Missouri
Rangers - Round Rock, Texas and Frisco, Texas
Astros - Fresno, California and Corpus Christi, Texas (Astros moving their AAA to San Antonio)

Which of the 4 local teams should move their minor league teams to Oklahoma?

What I"m saying is I think Milb and MLB is doing it wrong. You should always align your minor league teams (ESPECIALLY AAA and AA) to be in your region as a way to be able to reach fans in other nearby markets to coax them into becoming Royals fans.

Just think of all the guys we get to trade in three months:
-Danny Duffy
-Mike Moustakas
-Lucas Duda
-Jason Hammel
-Salvador Perez
-Kelvin Herrera
-Clay Buchholtz
-Ian Kennedy
-Whit Merrifield
-Jon Jay
-Alcides Escobar

KEEP:
-Junis
-Mondesi
-Bonifacio
-Mccarthy
-Cuthbert
-Gordon (because we have to)

SHOOT IN THE DESERT:
-Maurer
-Boyer
-Grimm
-Almonte
-Goins
-Skoglund
-Birch Smith

Those guys should get us some decent shit to replenish our farm system. Almost best case scenario. Starting pitching doing well and guys like Whit, Moose who have value doing well. Tradable assets performing while our broke jagoffs in the pen blow it.

It would be “are doing it wrong”, not “is doing it wrong” since you’re addressing both the MLB and MiLB.

I know the Royals are in full on tank mode, but perhaps they should mix in a win every 8 games or so just to keep fans coming to the stadium.

They're trying to win every game.

Chiefspants 04-20-2018 06:21 PM

I bet.at most 4 of those guys get traded

Suddenly Jorge Soler is looking like one of our most promising prospects again.

500 AB's, Ned.

ILChief 04-20-2018 07:13 PM

You would think they'd back into a win at some point
