He’s been excellent for them and is having a great year. Royals would have been better served to hold onto him and move him at the trade deadline, rather than dumping him ASAP just to cut some money. Though, of corse, if the royals had him, they might not be in line for a top 2 pick... |

God, Baltimore is awful. How did these two teams fall so far in just three years? Amazing.

Rany had a crazy stat on Twitter this morning. Whit has basically moved into the top 25 position players in Royals history in WAR. The only 2B ahead of him is Frank White. He's only played really for two seasons.

I hate the idea of trading Whit because the optimist in me hopes we compete while he's still good. But what could we possibly get for him in an offseason trade? Draft picks or prospects. Duncan - thoughts?

I think you bring him back and give the team a shot. Whit and aMondesi could be a hell of a middle infield next year.

Merrifield has been worth the cost of admission alone this year. It doesn’t make a lot of sense, but the diehard fan in me wants us to bring him back and keep him here.

Yeah it seems like that's most likely. But if some team wants to break the bank for Whit obviously you have to think about it. That's really what I'm wondering - what would it take to pry Whit away?

Whit & Salvy are untradeable to me.
