KC ROYALS  Trade


C Salvador Perez [3.33M 2014] [3.33M 2015] [3.33m 2016] [3.33M  2017] [3.33M 2018] [3.33M

1B Eric Hosmer [ARB 2014] [ARB 2015] [ARB 2016] [ARB 2017]



Accept- This trade was made for several reasons. First, we believe Eric Hosmer and Sal Perez's are extremely talented players and they have yet to max out there potential. They are great additions to an offense that already has Adam Jones, Chris Davis, and JJ. This trade should give us some cap savings both in the short term and out years and we had some concerns about Machado's health and if he would be 100% by opening day.  

[Alex (Royals)]

I accept. Expect a bounce big year from Wieters who holds good power potential and is a good young C who I prefer to Perez. I also love Machado and things hes one of the best up and coming young infielders. Even with his injury I think he will be ready next season and perform well. I can also slide Butler to 1B. Good deal O's.

[Tyler (Mets)]

Approve I like this deal for kc I think machida is the best player in this deal

[Anthony (Cards) (LM)]

Approve

[Troy (Cubs) (LM)]

Approve.

I'd rather have Perez over Matty W any day. Good pick up by BAL there.

Then again, I'd never consider moving a HOF player like Manny. So I, personally, love this trade for KC.
