Cueto and Zobrist came at a high price. Hindsight is 20/20 so it was obviously worth the expense. I was all for these trades at the time as well. Go all in while you have the chance. The window was open and the Royals took their shot. Those windows arent there for every team, especially small market ones.

I remember my wife bemoaning how Cueto was pitching down the stretch. I told her the Royals didnt trade for him for his regular season pitching. They traded for him to pitch in the post season. He was nails in the post season. That was just a very fun and memorable year of Royals baseball.
