Jeez. On the one hand, there's not a lot of talent on the team. Zack, Soria, Butler... I'm struggling to find anyone else who would start on a playoff caliber team (and even Butler might not, admittedly I haven't watched a Royals game in about a month). On the other hand, Hillman's made some incredibly stupid decisions with the talent that he does have.
Then there's Moore. 2 sides to his story as well. One side says that he inherited possibly the worst sports franchise in America and it will take a long time to get it to a competitive franchise. On the other, he's also made some incredibly stupid decisions when most of the time there were better options available.
If there is a shakeup on the roster (and by gawd, there needs to be), the improvement needs to be great and it needs to come fast. No more Guillen's or Olivo's on the roster (anyone else notice that we're paying Olivo & Buck $8 mil combined when we could have drafted Matt Weiters and paid him the same $8 mil not to suck?). I understand that it's a small market & you can't just go sign A-Rod, but there has to be improvement. Dayton can't just keep saying "wait until Moustakas & Hosmer get to the big leagues!"
