The last 3 years I have been drinking the coolaid that shit is different. Oh didn't the scouts sort of miss on buck and teahen, or i guess that was the best deal were were going to get. Either Way we just miss on everyone. It's going to look like we missed on guillen because no one around him is doing anything.

My bad. Here's last year, then. Porcello. Regarded by all "experts" as the second-best guy. Wanted lots of cash. Two years ago, very likely Andrew Miller, by most accounts the top prospect in the draft.

I know there were knocks against both of these guys, but the fact remains they both wanted lots of cash and the Royals didn't take them. If it looks like a duck...
