Royals ironically seem like one of the best fits for him too at DH.

Pelfrys curve is dancing around, KC doesn't like it

Nope, rather take a chance with him figuring it out than an A ball lottery prospect

I'd love for the Twins or Royals to dip into their system for rentals like Swarzak and Melky.

It would never happen though especially with Soler having long-term deal. KC wouldn't do it for rentals

4th inning, Pelfs has not allowed a hit lol

Moncada noticeably choking up on the bat with 2 strikes here.

Moncada crushed that, just to wrong part

I've said this before, but the WGN bumper music is fantastic.

Melky a triple away from the cycle!

Keep it up Melk!!!! Good Lord is he on a tear....

I think he has value to a team. He's (capable) of playing LF or RF, is a switch hitter, has good contact skills, and is a good clubhouse presence.

I guess it doesn't hurt for Yolmer to get 3B reps, but I'd much rather see him at SS and Saladino at 3B instead of the other way around.

Agreed.

Doing a great job of not chasing pitches since he's been up. Also, holy cow is Yolmer's average plummeting. Remember when some thought he would push Moncada off 2nd?

It seems like, for the most part, that he's still been making good contact, just unlucky that they've been going to defenders. However, some leveling off was to be expected, he wasn't going to hit .300 all year, but .270-.280 seems reasonable for him.

I don't know why a contender wouldn't want him.

5th inning once again giving Pelfrey problems.

5th+ inning once again giving Pelfrey problems.

 

Might as well let him pitch through it.

I posted this earlier, he cant start anymore but could be a good mid inning guy.

 

Could Pelphrey be a decent middle reliever next year. Through the first 2 innings in all his starts he is 34 innings and 10 runs. And through the 3rd innings of starts he will have 51 innings 17 runs. After that he goes about 26 innings and 26 runs. He just doesnt have the strength anymore to be a starter.
