Royals could likely land front-of-rotation starter if they trade Myers - KansasCity.com

Bob Dutton of the Kansas City Star reports that the Royals have had discussions about trading top prospect Wil Myers for either James Shields or Jon Lester.
The Royals have already added Ervin Santana via trade this offseason from the Angels and recently signed Jeremy Guthrie to a three-year contract, but they want a true front-line starter and are apparently willing to deal one of the most promising young hitters in the game in order to acquire one. Myers, 21, batted .314/.387/.600 with 37 home runs and 109 RBI in 134 games this past season between the Double-A and Triple-A levels.

This kid has a ton of talent. He is a former catcher that they moved to
the outfield. He had a great year last year in AA & AAA.

I would love to see us get a young top of the line bat.
I would drive Lester (Tired of his act) to the airport to get Myers

the only thing i would add to this is the league myers plays in. the fields he plays on in this league are very small and skew his numbers. just something to think about.
