The #Royals believe their stiffest competition for OF Alex Gordon could come from #STLCards

Cards fans would just bitch about their "shitty" corner outfielder like they did with Heyward last season.

It will be interesting to see if we try a trade, what teams are thinking now when the Royals want a player before the season.



I would not mind seeing the Royals also try out their new style a bit further. the goal is to not have a starter see batters for the 3rd time. With this style you do not have to have an elite num 1 starter, sure it is awesome. But it saves a lot of money and you can spend a little bit more elsewhere and compete. But if your pitcher is going lights out that game, you keep him in longer.

We signed Young as a starter/long relief, I would not mind signing one other pitcher for a starter/long relief and try out a four man rotation, and then alternate the two long reliefs depending on matchups or if one is not used early in a series. Then hit them with our relief.

Seems like a great way to save millions and use that money for securing the field spots Cain/Salvy/Hos..

If they're gonna go with starters only seeing the lineup twice, it sure as hell wont be with a 4 man rotation.

But signing Soria would potentially give KC flexibility to move Herrera or Hochevar as part of a package for a corner OF.

We've seen a lot of smoke on Herrera. Makes me wonder if perhaps the organization looks at Kelvin the way our old friend Hoots does (one-pitch pitcher, who is going to take as steep downturn in effectiveness as soon as he loses 100 mph and is more of a 97-98 guy).
That's what's going to happen.

Aroldis Chapman to Dodgers. Snore.

Iwakuma also to Dodgers. Snore

Or, or, it helps fill in for losing Holland....

Duncan, If the Royals do trade a package that includes Herrera, I assume they'd be looking for a young OF that they could control for a few years. Do your inside sources have any idea who's on the list to target? What team has enough depth in the OF to let a very good one go? ( I hope they do NOT target headcase Yasiel Puig ).

ChiefsCountry 12-07-2015 11:05 AM
Puig would be perfect fit. Cost controlled and we have a strong Latin American locker room presence, fellow Cuban, very loose clubhouse, manager that won't play head games and in a market with no pressure.
