There is no value in being .500. A "culture of winning" is created by talent. Anything else is fantasy.

Where did Santana say he'd be open to signing a one-year deal? All I've seen is that he's open to signing with the Royals, and that he'd be open to signing with them even if he's traded this year.

Not parting with Ventura for a possible 2.5 year fun with Kendrick at 2b.

Where did you see Santana said he would take a 1 year deal?

It's funny that the first time in a decade we're in any form of contention, some fans are yelling "Sell!" anyway. Weird. I guess they like Dayton's 10-year plan.

Ventura and other pieces for Kendrick would be worth it.

DeezNutz 07-29-2013 01:45 PM

Keeping Santana doesn't make a lot of sense if you believe the odds facing the Royals to make the playoffs. The right move is to trade him, but this would take a lot of guts from Moore (and confidence in job security).

Bottom line: It all goes back to the Myers trade. Dude was moved to "win now," and now Moore must double down on this strategy, logic be damned.

I heard it on royals broadcast....but as others have posted the same question as you, maybe I misunderstood the quote.

Either way, I wouldn't give up Ventura for Kendrick. Kendrick in his career averages around 10 HR and 55 RBI per season.

Power hitting RF prospects/ Trade!

5'6 150lb SP prospects/ Can't part with!

There's no way in hell Santana signs a 1-year deal. After this season, he'll be getting a lot of multi-year offers. It'll probably have to be at least 3 years, maybe 4.

We should care about RBIs why? The above measures do nothing to evaluate the overall worth of a 2B.

Right. I highly doubt he risk losing 40 million dollars on a 1 year deal.

10 home runs a year for a second basemen puts him in the top 15 second basemen about every year.

2:27pm: The Orioles have always been willing to consider trading Dylan Bundy and other top prospects, writes Dan Connolly of the Baltimore Sun. During the offseason, they kicked around a Bundy-Wil Myers swap, he adds. However, the Orioles would have to be overwhelmed to deal their top prospects, and the available veterans on the trade market wouldn't come close.

He's a 4.0 WAR player. /end argument

Did you happen to notice in those "avgs" he has some seasons where he played less than 100 games figured in?

Since he became a FT player he will likely give you 290 15HR and about 70RBI and play an above avg 2nd base.
