Who? He looks like minor league filler.

@Alden_Gonzalez: A look at what today's #Angels roster moves mean ... http://t.co/va9wRJ9LVr

@Alden_Gonzalez: Notable #Angels prospects left unprotected for Rule 5 Draft: Kaleb Cowart, Matt Long, Austin Wood, Daniel Hurtado, Erick Salcedo.
It's very unlikely that Cowart will be taken.

Would it be a laughable idea to try him a bit on the mound? Give him a few workouts on the mound. See how he takes to it.
He pitched in HS I'm sure.
Before he was drafted, most scouts thought he had a better future as a pitcher.

I think you meant to ask if the Royals get a first round draft pick. They don't get a first round pick from the A's, but they might some type of comp pick.wow -- first the Cespedes for Lester deal and now this --
very un-Billy Beane like moves.
this makes the A's slower and adds more GIDP numbers to the box score.
I agree with the prior post above -- Butler clogs up the base paths and doesn't really hit for power any more -- and is a .280 hitter on a good day.
his best defensive position is DH........
this is actually good news for the Royals -- don't they get a draft pick out of this -- plus with this done there's no hometown pressure to bring back a fan favorite.
having said all this, watch Butler have a 3 homerun game against us or something like that next year.........
His contract isn't that bad. He's only 28 and it's only a three year deal. His numbers were solid up until this past season.

He trashed our owner, said he hates gays and MLB doesn't care about black people...dude is a bad guy and everyone falls for his BS good guy persona!
I didn't realize he said that. I'm in now.

Sosh has a second home in Newport Beach, but the majority of the time, he still makes the drive to Simi Valley. In an interview, Sosh said he likes the long drive, it gives him time to think about the game/team.

Out

I missed it. I thought it was something that happened tonight.
- Dave Stewart of the Diamondbacks sees Jeremy Hellickson as “a number two or number three starter,†Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic writes. The prospects the Diamondbacks sent to the Rays, Justin Williams and Andrew Velazquez, both have potential. (Williams hit .351/.403/.437 in 320 plate appearances in rookie ball and at Class A South Bend this season, impressive numbers for an 18-year-old at any level.) But for Stewart, Hellickson’s talent was more important, and he can help the Diamondbacks now. “They could both be All-Stars, but from our standpoint they’re three or four years away from being major league players,†says Stewart. “We have an opportunity to get a good starter to put in our rotation now and go along with our plans for our team with the 2015 season.â€

where did you read or hear that? It's not on MLBTR.

How can a 23 year old player be in decline?
Geez
Some people are at their peak or decline when they're 18 or even younger.

Keep Kendrick, offer him the qualifying and look forward to either one more season or a draft pick.
Jeff Fletcher speculated that if the Angels did that, Kendrick might not reject the qualifying offer and the Angels wouldn't want to pay him 15 million (even if its just for one year). Fletcher thinks because of that, the Angels wouldn't make him a qualifying offer.

Scott Miller tweeted a bunch of Boras' comments about this.
-
nope
cano and altuve finished ahead of him.
I should've known that. Third out of the AL 2B is still great.
-
2:42pm: The Marlins and Stanton are close to agreeing to terms on a 13-year, $325MM contract that is expected to contain a no-trade clause and an opt-out clause, tweets Jon Heyman of CBS Sports.
-
Did Kendrick get more MVP votes than any other AL 2B? That should increase his trade value even more!

my fear? ichiro = asian hamilton
I was thinking Ichiro=Asian Ibanez

http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2014/11/yoan-moncada-expected-to-receive-record-bonus-for-amateur-player.html#disqus_thread
Yoan Moncada Expected To Receive Record Bonus For Amateur PlayerCuban infielder Yoan Moncada is quickly becoming one of the most hyped amateurs in history, and it’s expected that he will absolutely shatter the record for an amateur player — international or domestic — according to Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports. Passan spoke to a pair of GMs and two other executives, and all four agreed that they expect the 19-year-old Moncada to land an incredible $30-40MM bonus.
While that bonus doesn’t necessarily seem steep right off the bat, at least when juxtaposed with the commitments made to countrymen Yoenis Cespedes ($36MM), Yasiel Puig($42MM), Jose Abreu ($68MM) and Rusney Castillo ($72.5MM), bear in mind that each of those players was viewed as a professional under baseball’s collective bargaining agreement and therefore was not subject to international spending limitations.
Moncada, on the other hand, will be subject to spending limits, but executives that spoke with Passan still seemed to believe the price tag could approach $40MM. That would obliterate any team’s bonus pool, and a signing team would have to pay a 100 percent luxury tax on all overages (in addition to subsequently being prohibited from spending more than $300K on a player in the next two signing periods). In that regard, then, a team would essentially be dropping $60-80MM to add Moncada to its farm system, based on the range Passan received in his poll of execs.

If we are going for any of the big 3 that are available. I would prefer that they focus on Lester.
I hope the Angels dont sign any of the so called "big three". Lester will most likely sign with the Red Sox or Cubs.

@Ken_Rosenthal: #Mariners made offer to VMart, looking at all hitters, including Cruz. Jack Z was scouting director for MIL when Cruz was with #Brewers.

@jonmorosi: Tigers and Victor Martinez in agreement on four-year, $68 million contract, sources confirm @JonHeymanCBS report.
I'm glad the M's didn't sign him.

The Angels haven't said anything, but I doubt that they'll stretch him out. We probably won't know until spring training.
