As I was watching the beginning I was thinking that Alex doesn't hit that many homeruns. Then in saw the end. :love:

Alex is a great and important player for KC. His leadership skills are unquestionable.

But look at his HR numbers. They are not overwhelming.

Combined with the new CBA provisions and Glass's refusal (to this point) to increasing payroll, the Royals are quickly in jeopardy of falling out of playoff contention for the next few years. Glass won a WS Championship by spending a bit more when necessary; considering other division clubs' moves for the second straight season (and offseason spending isn't over yet), KC probably cant get to the playoffs again without some significant moves and spending.

Not when your new TV contract is right around the corner it isn't.

Wacky may have a point. TV people don't necessarily have the long range vision of a professional sports team.

I was really hoping we'd throw some of that new TV contract $ towards Hosmer. I want us to break the bank on this deal.

Why would you want to break the bank on a below average to average 1st baseman?

Sounds like Wader for Soler is almost a done deal.
