January 27, 201511 yr Author QUOTE (LDF @ Jan 27, 2015 -> 03:49 PM) i will not discuss #1 with you.... my problem with shield is his performance in the playoff. he is requesting how much and then look at his performance....... Nobody seems to hold that against Mr. Kershaw, haha. The Royals were smart all along to realize it would be better to go with someone with more upside and less wear and tear in Edinson Volquez. Of course, it could end up in disaster, but they do possess a lot more internal rotation options than they did 2 seasons ago, not to mention Hochevar will coming back as well as a swing man. When a team coming out of the World Series doesn't make ANY effort to keep such an integral player to their playoff run, it does make you wonder a bit.

March 26, 201511 yr Author And insurance payments/workmen's comp (Nate Jones)....all the big ticket contracts like Danks (for sure), Sale, Quintana, Eaton, Cabrera, Robertson, Abreu, Ramirez, etc. Not sure about Samardzija.
