KC got robbed. You trade a prospect like Wil Myers for a pitcher like David Price not Shields and Davis. Shields is a pitcher more on the Mat Latos level and you didn't see the Reds giving up Aroldis Chapman for him. And the Royals don't need another reliever. Why did they trade for Davis? It makes no sense.

I am thinking KC gave up Myers and Butler or Gordon.... I don't think they would really part with Homser or Moustakas and TB wants MLB ready players.

If Dayton Moore is employed tomorrow morning there is something wrong.

What an absolutely brutal raping by Tampa.

As a huge Royals fan I'm in mourning tonight. This is the worst trade in our long history of terrible trades. All so we have the threat of winning 80 games next year. Nothing wrong with Wil Myers, guy will be a star. And we gave him away for dogshit.

I like this deal for both teams. While Myers is a great prospect, he still is a prospect. Kudos for the Royals for upgrading their staff with 2 starters and dealing Myers. No guts no glory. Rays did well for themselves as they're stacked with young starters while not having to give one up and landing a prospect of Myers caliber.

I would rather be on the Rays side, but it's a good deal for both parties.
