Pounders was JAG in the minors. Taking up a valuable spot on the 40, so more than likely they were looking at probably losing anyway by removing from the 40. So they floated his name for a wildcard that wouldn't have to be protected for another year.

@jcrasnick: The #Royals have gotten multiple inquiries on Jarrod Dyson. "He fits a lot of teams,'' said one exec. Fast, affordable, can play RF or CF
@jcrasnick: Problem is, Dyson is slotted in to share RF with Paulo Orlando. So the #Royals would have to go out and find replacement if they moved him. |

Dyson is also the glue in the clubhouse, messing with chemistry in the locker room might be tough.

I've heard several times that Dyson is a locker room leader, similar to Hosmer just not as active in the media. I don't think the Royals like dealing those guys away.

I used to want to deal Dyson, because he's getting old. But until he shows me that he's declining I don't want to do it. He's legitimately the best deal in baseball the last 5 years. I'm pretty sure he has the most WAR per at bat of any Royal.

I can't see them trading Dyson unless they go into a full-scale fire sale mode. He's just too valuable and cheap to move unless they're done with 2017.
Especially since they want to move Cain off of CF full-time, an input that is escaping the national guys at the moment. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So Astros sign two guys Royals would have liked to supplement an already solid offense in Reddick and Beltran. Lot of time left, but with Mellingers article, I don't have a good feeling about this offseason.
