Disclaimer: I know I'm passing along hearsay from a friend, which isn't worth much. A friend of mine works for the Royals and encounters DM from time to time.
He told me about one trade that was on the table about a year and a half ago. It involved a pitcher that some on here specifically mentioned as a trade target. My friend says that DM had all the pieces to the deal in place, but couldn't pull the trigger because Glass wouldn't sign off on taking on the salary. So that part is depressing.
The other part of the story is that the trade involved Myers, but since that time, Myers has become virtually untouchable. Of course, the Royals will entertain strong offers, as they should, but my friend is convinced that the Royals will demand a lot in return for Myers. So hopefully Dutton is way off on that part.
