Royals acquire OF Norichika Aoki


Recommended Posts

PB?

 

 

Royals might not need him but -- Gee, I wonder if the sabermetric minded, run prevention loving Boston Red Sox would want him now that Ellsbury left them high and dry?   It's not like a guy who pulled 58% of the balls he hit would do well in a park like Boston...

 

Of course we needed to jump in on Freese, before someone else snatched him.    We can wait on a thin pitching market to dry up, but we trade a cost controlled asset early.

Who do you think Boston would give up for Bourjos?

I like Aoki -- good pick up for Royals.

 

Will Smith a decent LHP for the pen.

 

Seems like Royals got the better end........but Smith could be a starter or a set up guy. Like him better as a set up guy.

 

if he's used solely as a situational lefty -- well, then the Brewers gave up too much.
