I'm fine starting him now but isn't he a career .267 hitter in the minors? He could come back to earth soon too.

He could. Looks like he OPS in the 800s in 14 and was off to a great start in the minors and MLB this year. I don't know if anything significantly better then him right now is available.

@BNightengale: The #Padres are expected to eat about half of remaining $56 million in Shields contract when they trade him.

So 28 Mil for 2 1/2 years of Shields (11 mil a year)? Not what he was, but seems like a good guy to solidify the back end with Volquez, Kennedy, Ventura, Shields, Duffy.

His numbers since 2015 have been much more Jeremy Guthrie than 13-14 Shields. |

Nice! Gonna be a lot of hanging change-ups leaving the yard. Shields is washed. This is awesome for the division

I hope the Royals go after some SP as well. As is, this is NOT a staff that is Playoff Caliber. I think our bats will continue to improve as we get guys back and Morales crawls slowly out of his slump. But our SP is very suspect, and won't be enough to win the Central without an acquisition. Just my very unqualified opinion.

Man, if the Padres are eating that much cash, I expect Anderson is part of the deal. Not sure the Sox have another guy that valuable ( guess Carson Fulmer could be the principle, but that seems light).
