The good side is that he's already worked back from the second surgery and recovered his velocity AND his plus secondary (the changeup). The down side is that he's old, and his re-injury risk has to be considered fairly high. The mid-season trade market for good relievers just isn't that high. I like taking a couple of riskier swings and hoping you land one. They should be able to get a little bit more out of moving Barlow, if they go that route, since he has another year of control beyond this one. But I wouldn't expect anything insane for him.

Former Royal makes the All Star team.
Adding the link as well just in the case embedded video doesn't work because Twitter is a dumpster fire right now. https://twitter.com/Athletics/status...26665404416001 |

Disappointed in the Royals batters in the second half of the lineup. One inning, the #4 hitter took a walk and the next two swung at the first pitch and popped it up. And all of the swinging at pitches up in their eyes. Where's the coaching? Isn't this something they should be working on?

Michael A. Taylor is such a good OF. Nicky should have been in scoring position.

Garcia is red hot and is probably the best defensive 3B in the league. He's got the 2nd highest UZR/150 among infielders. He's 10th in the league in outs above average and is 2nd among 3rd basemen.

There was a point in this thread where someone said Clarke was the only bright spot we had this year.

Maikel Garcia kinda reminds me a bit of Joe Randa, except with more speed. Plus, he's a couple years younger than Randa was when Joe hit the big leagues. Hopefully Maikel can get a little more power in his bat in the coming years as he fills out and gets more adjusted to the league.
