  1. If you're trading Q then trade Abreu, Robertson, Sale, Danks, Flowers, Lexi, Duke and that guy who supposedly is the DH. Start over with a BOATLOAD of young talent + Rodon and Fulmer as your key pitching pieces. And hire a manager who can work with young talent, who knows how to teach the game. Q, Sale and Abreu would bring you riches. Or do very little, hope for the best and be prepared for another season of below average and very frustrating baseball.

    Point is, the club is doing some very different things now than they were just three years ago (or 2 or 4) on the amateur side. People seem to think the club is still just drafting either Walker/Mitchell types or Broadway types. That simply isn't true.

    That's encouraging. Now if we can just get rid of Buddy Bell I'll believe real change in player development is underfoot. Until then, no.

    It reminds me of the Sox at the trade deadline.............do not get fooled again KW/Hahn.

    he certainly had a terrible year but unless the Sox are prepared to walk thru the desert for a few years, stockpile some high draft picks and start over, not sure if you're going to have better options than Lexi next year. Doesn't seem Anderson is ready

    Remember back in 2005, we had a 12-16 record in August and in mid-September we had a 4-10 stretch?

     

    The Royals aren't playing their best right now but their best is as good as anyone when the find it. Don't judge teams by what they're doing at their best or at their worst. 2 weeks later it can look very different.

    Agreed, but I'm not judging them so much on their play right now but just thinking about their starting pitching and how they match up. They're probably the most complete team all around, though.
