Yes, but no. The Royals know more about that shoulder than any of us do. He separated it just taking swings off a tee in practice. That's a serious issue, Bwillie. Maybe it isn't. But for a team like this to really gamble by locking a young guy up, it isn't VP, even though I love the guy. And it isn't BWJ, due to the defensive concerns you've brought up. It's either Melendez or Singer. Give both a huge, but not too huge, contract now. Let VP play for a full season. If his shoulder doesn't go out, lock that bastard up too.
Trade BWJ for Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson both, because based on how fantasy drafts are going, the Orioles would jump on that.
