Wil Meyers

I wonder if the Royals would bite on a Wil Meyers for Homer Bailey. He sure would look good in between Votto and Bruce. Plus we have good options in house to replace Bailey.

Re: Wil Meyers

He would be the prototype of guy we need. A LF who hits RH and can split up Votto and Bruce however they aren't going to give him up for Homer. Dayton Moore is having a tough time giving him up on Matt Moore or Jeremy Hellickson. Those two are cost controlled for atleast 4 more years and have had atleast similar success to Homer (except for a no hitter). They are younger, cheaper and most importantly probably better.

Re: Wil Meyers

The Royals would be crazy not to jump on Wil Myers for Matt Moore. I can't imagine why the Rays would be interested in that. Hellickson is another matter.

Re: Wil Meyers

Great Talent... A bonafide .300/30/100 Threat...

I'd say anyone other than Hamilton... They Royals want Pitching so you're probably looking at Tony Cingrani and I'd pull the trigger.

Re: Wil Meyers

I'd wager if KC trades him it'll be for ML proven pitching. They do line up with Tampa pretty well, actually.

It'd probably take Bailey + Cingrani/Corcino, if not a little more.

Re: Wil Meyers

Bailey for Myers would be a classic Jocketty trade. Then use the money saved from Homers contract to add a closer and move Chapman to the rotation. All that would be left is a leadoff hitter and beefing up the bench.

Was reading on ESPN that the Royals were looking at James Shields.
