Again, this is a good trade on paper. No one, I mean no one the Royals sign or should say are willing\able to sign is going to do anything to influence me until next April and the balls & strikes count.
At this point we still have one of the worst pitchers in baseball in Hochevar. Paulino won't be back in anytime to play a solid #3-#4 role. Chen is still not the #5 where he should be. Duffy won't be back anytime soon either.
Paulino and Duffy give GMDM an out to stick with people like Hoch and Chen ala "we didn't want to sign anyone else because we knew at some point these guys would return to the rotation"
