Friday night's game was a sellout and even through two rain delays, there were still a few thousand people there at 12:45 AM when the Uncle Kraker concert finished.

That's true. Â They only called Lough up because Dyson is injured. Â Robinson and Falu along with some pitchers that are on the 40 man including Verdugo would be in KC if not for the playoffs.Coyote wrote:I thought I read a while back that KC was not going to touch the Chasers roster knowing they were going to post season action.
Odorizzi and Myers are not on the 40 man so they probably would not have been called up either way.

The additions are big for the Royals. Â Giving up Montgomery, who is looking like a bust, and Odorizzi, who doesn't have elite stuff, is completely fine by me. Â Myers on the other hand might be the best OF prospect in all of baseball is a risk.Coyote wrote:Goodbye to outfielder Wil Myers and pitchers Jake Odorizzi and Mike Montgomery.
Interesting to see the Royals trading for starters instead of the other way around though.
