All clubs make these sorts of deals over the winter. These fringy guys are organizational fodder. Why do the Royals get so much scrutiny for it when other teams similar transactions are ignored?

Any Kansas Citian would like to trade David Glass for a new mascot and six pack of Bud, well a mascot anyway. Remember when Ewing Kaufman owned this team, they drew nearly three million fans every year. His death, and the death of the franchise, mirror each other.

They have Bird’s plastic saxophone from the Massey Hall concert in the jazz museum out there, and they’ve got Lucky Wesley on bass. That’s plenty for one cow town.

The O-Royals were more dinged up than the KC club last season. He also probably had ties to bench coach (former Toronto manager) John Gibbons, so he’s getting a shot. The only pitcher on the market still that really has much intrigue IMO is Bedard.

Wouldn’t be surprised if there had been a bidding war between the Royals and the Mets for this future HOF pitcher. (She says as she continues to bang her head against the wall.)
