I was hoping the Royals would release Hammel today. After giving up three runs and recording zero outs yesterday ( after Junis's awesome effort ), he should be DFA'd.
I could see them keeping him hoping to get something through the waver wire, but who would give anything for him?
Maybe the Royals are keeping him because they don't want to give him the rest of the season off with pay. Maybe making him come to work every day and play for a crappy team is his punishment for being a crappy pitcher?
