Are the Royals through trading?

Supposedly a lot of teams are calling about Redman. I believe I read that the Blue Jays have also called about him. The Yankees don't seem to want to give up anybody decent though. Their call I guess, hopefully Dayton keeps playing hardball with them. I'm sure Cashman really wants to be the GM that misses the playoffs under Steinbrenner because he wouldn't give up a 17 year old kid. Well, at least that's what I'd be telling him.

There was a quote in the Star the other day from an anonymous scout that said Affeldt has been throwing about "as well as he ever has"... something like that anyway. Thought he'd have value in this relievers market, but we'll see.

I wouldn't trade him just to trade him; if he really has "figured it out," we could always use another lefty in the pen. However, an Affeldt for Shealy would be great.
