Trade Idea

Sold and I would even throw in slugger for good measure!!

When was the last time we traded for a player during the year?

I believe it was Brian Anderson a few years back....

all we need is a solid bat in the middle of our lineup.

thank god Guillen is warming up.

But Holliday brings that extra punch that Teahen doesnt

He's got some great stats..  Are they looking to move him? I was talking about Ryan Howard the other day how good would that guy look in a nice royal blue uniform??

He's a missouri boy!!

yes the rocks are lookin to move.

and to whom idk but this team really needs a good solid bat in the middle of the order.

Ryan Howard would  be a good addition to the club.

Imagine

CF- David DeJesus

LF- Jose Guillen

RF-Matt Holliday

2nd-Grud

SS-Pena

3rd-Alex Gordon

1st-Billy Butler

DH-Ryan Howard

C-Buck/Olivo

And to go with our pitching staff..........  whoooo hooo ur looking at a couple playoff appearances at least.

Man I hope they look to secure another bat........  that's really all this lineup needs.

Whatever happened to Ryan Shiely (i thkn thats how u spell it) that guy kinda fell off the map after getting hurt!!

I think you guys are forgetting how much Holliday is going to cost.  He is going to be way more expensive than Guillen!  Would I like to have him, of course!  But it is going to take alot of money to get him to stay more than a year or two or however much is left on his contract.

That is the only reason why the Rockies are shopping him.  He's going to want top money.

Holliday or Howard would both command somewhere in the 12-15M/year range. I just dont see the Royals pulling the trigger on something like that. Especially the way Meche is panning out at 11M/year, and Guillen is panning out 12M/year.

Sadly, the only superstars that will be doning powder blue, are the budding ones, who've yet to sign a big contract. I hope it changes soon. By the way, we way overpaid for Meche and Guillen, regardless of how they've been playing.
