Oak, despite being last, had great SABR peripherals and Beane believes in those so he probably thinks they will revert. And prob remembers being burnt on the Donaldson disaster. Still, Reddick is the 1 guy I'd want.

Reddick and Marcell Ozuna are the two guys in the trade market who make a lot of sense for KC.
Reddick would be an awesome add, and it would be interesting to see where they hit him, if acquired. I'm not sure how high his value would be, as a one-year rental, but he's certain to turn down a QO at the end of the year, so you'd need to compensate them at least with the equivalent of a sandwich pick of value.
You'd think, anyway. Maybe Beane gets obsessed with a Royals player for no apparent reason (cough, cough, Brett Lawrie) and makes another bad deal.
