I'd REALLY rather see Myers in RF at the end of May than Frenchy.
If they offer Moore and Archer for Myers, do you bite?

That's a tough 'no' vote, isn't it? You get a #1 starter and probable #3 starter for the next 5 years without touching a starter off last year's offense (an offense that was pretty decent as the season went along).

I know everyone's immediate reaction is to just shout 'no!' and move along, but it's a closer call than it seems, IMO. The Royals are going to struggle to get an ace in here and up to speed before they have to worry about getting guys like Moose and Hosmer re-signed. They can't let this window close on them.

If they can get an immediate injection of premier young pitching to go with their good young hitters, it's a thought they have to consider.

I still think they're better off going with a Hosmer/Hellickson duo, but if Myers/Moore is all they can get done, I think they have to consider it.
