6 years of Wong is worth quite a bit.

THIS, they had better not trade him for some scrub bullpen guy. We need someone thats reliable and cost controlled that will allow Rosenthal to become a starter next year.

We need Freese for at least the next 2 seasons; moving him to make room for Wong when Wong will almost certainly not be a better player is just bizarre.

Agree on Tilson, it was actually Piscotti I was thinking of, but he too has been converted to OF.

Maybe you should start following this guy:

I am. He's getting his shit pushed in at A ball right now.

Huh? He made the MWL ASG.

Holliday has already cost the Cardinals a run with an absolutely moronic relay throw that allowed Gregorius to take second.

If Wong ends up an above average defensive 2b with an .800 OPS, his value smokes Brett Cecil, especially since Cecil will only come with 3 years of team control (and be arb eligible for all of them).

If we're looking at relievers, I'd deal Wong for a wipeout RHRP with 3+ years of remaining service time that we could use as a closer while waiting to see which of the young arms can't transition to the starting rotation and/or waiting for Swagerty to make it back. The Royals likely wouldn't give up Kelvin Herrera for him (and probably wouldn't give up Holland either), but for 6 years of a guy that's a likely 2-3 WAR player, that's the kind of return I'm going to want.

6 years of Wong is worth quite a bit.

In a vacuum I agree, but almost anyone that we deal with is going to be doing so from a position of strength, which devalues Wong's absolute worth.

I'd like to be able to get a lights out reliever for him, but I don't think that's a reasonable expectation, even if it should be in a rational market.

I'll be glad to get Parra the **** out of town.

I'm not saying I'd suck Matt Carpenter's dick, but I'm also not saying I wouldn't.

I have no original clue of my own. This link is somewhat interesting/helpful:

This strike zone is horrible.

We have absolutely crushed Kennedy tonight and still only have two runs to show for it. Jay and Shelby need to get Descalso in here.

There we go. My damn MLB tv that I had to pay for here in KC because of the black out bullshit, is down so I'm having to keep up with it on my damn phone instead of the big flatscreen thru my ps3.
