Moose was my favorite Royals but it was absolutely correct to resign him and it's absolutely correct to trade him now. This all proves it.
The Hosmer lovers were so wrong. It would have been disastrous to have resigned him. Hosmer would net us little in a trade today. Thanks for producing this first half Moose.

Also, weren’t you the one that pointed out that the Royals turned out 26K + for a nothingburger game against the Tigers at the K the other night? |

And if his FA market sucks again, they should consider a 2-3 year deal with him in the offseason.

Can't say I knew anything about the guys we traded for, but reading up on them, it appears that this is a nice little trade. Evidently, the Royals really covet Phillips and think he can be a really good player. And the other guy is a lottery ticket, as has been mentioned. Kinda exciting stuff given what an incredibly dismal season it's been.
Merrifield should have quite a bit of value if you can move him. Nicky Lopez is already MLB-ready. |

Absolutely! The first pick is still possible.

I’m still watching & rooting for a loss. The other night was perfect. Gotta keep bringing in Maurer in the 9th.

Phillips actually sounds like what Bubba was supposed to become.

Our Moose will be their second.
They had a pretty good pitcher in the 70's and 80's named Moose Haas. Good luck, Moose. I'll remember fondly you scribbling "MOM" in the dirt behind 3rd base every home game. The HR's vs the Angels and O's. The defensive plays against Baltimore at home and doubling off that idiot Cespedes to end game 4 of the 15 WS. Catch the Cubs. |

Keep the losses coming, guys.
Spend 2019 taking a long look at all these prospects. Hopefully they give us marginal improvement in our pitching. After 2019 we can buy out Gordon's contract and perhaps make a couple moves that will put us in a position to actually compete with other teams again. 2020 season is when this misery should subside. |
