@Ken_Rosenthal: Among CFers in whom #STLCards are expressing interest, per sources: #Royals’ Jarrod Dyson. Potential FA, lower acquisition cost than Cain.

@FlannyMLB: Dayton Moore reiterated that #Royals may make a trade or two here but that this is not a garage sale. Expects team to compete for title

You make good points on Soler, but that deal still feels awfully light compared to the Chapman deadline deal. Quote:
Well, that's good to hear. There's a path to moving Cain and Davis that still leads to success in 2017, but only if you net a SP and a 2B/RF in those trades who can upgrade you in 2017, and only if the salary savings are reinvested into some FA support for the bullpen (Luke Hochevar?) and lineup (DH - though all my targets are off the board).

Glass showing his true colors. Deep down he's a POS

First off, I can't see what resemblance whatsoever Soler has to Myers, other than some raw power and high K rates. Which you could compare to dozens of RH hitters. Soler is a league AVG hitter wRC+. That's not going to cut it at DH in the AL. He hit .224 vs RH so he's possibly worthless vs. the majority of pitchers we'd face. To me he's a 7 slot hitter on a crappy team, like the As or the Twins. |

Even with his huge potential, think I'd rather see Ian Happ from the Cubs than Soler. Seeing some buzz that Chicago might offer both, but that seems high (either as The centerpiece works, but both?).

What about Almora? He's a very good defender in the Outfield.. Hasn't quite developed the last couple of years in the higher levels like folks thought he would, but still has a lot of potential.

Perfect time to trade both in my opinion. Their value is only going down from this point.

Wong isn't that good
Cain is crucial to Royals' offense

You can say that about several players.
