Tired of hearing Butler sucks. If there is a better option by all means lets hear it, but there isn't. Dude is probably going to hit like .295 with 17 HR with a great OBP. Sure he lets us down some times with double plays and is slow, but Butler is hardly wrong with this team.
I'm still upset that we didn't trade Santana. I've been on record many times saying I didn't like the Schields trade & not trading Santana for something. You would have had a very nice return for Santana, and you would be selling high. Resigning him is not really an option and I don't know if overpaying to resign him is even worth it. The Schields trade basically screws this team for long term success. It is just a way for Dayton to keep his job, and unfortunately it looks like he will be sucessful with that. Even not taking into account THE NEXT 5 YEARS, the trade was BARELY in KC's favor this year. 5 years of Myers, Odorizzi etc would have been nice, instead of a Schields rental for ONE YEAR THAT WILL MATTER (2014).
