For everything Skip Schumaker is not, he is a consistent LH hitter that will give you nice ABs against RH hitters and play his ass off night in, night out. He's a good RFer and a below average 2b that will do in a pinch (though his arm and ability to range into the OF and medium range fly balls is often very useful).

He's inexpensive and fits your roster well. With the Royals now needing to deal with RF, he seems a great trade target for you.
I would rather watch Jeff Francouer swing mightily and miss 89-MPH fastballs all year long than watch Skip Schumaker adjust his damn batting gloves in between every single pitch of the entire season.
