Couldn’t the MRI just be the Royals gathering proof that Davis is healthy to finalize a potential trade?
Matt Galvin
Maybe and Game hasen’t started yet.

I doubt it. If a team wanted to look at his elbow I would expect they would want their doctor to make that evaluation.
Rickey O'Sunnyvale
Their doctor would get a look as well.Maybe no deal is in place yet.

No, Davis is injured. Teams exchange medicals on players, they don’t put them on a flight to be examined. At worst, he needs TJ. At best, KC will shut him down the rest of the season and hope he can rehab his elbow without surgery. Either way, his season is over.

Oh god….

And this is why you need to sell high on relievers. One slight tweak and you go from getting a 4 prospect package to being a non-tender candidate. Just ask Greg Holland. Speaking as purely a baseball fan, hopefully this is just something relatively minor because Davis has just been filthy the past two years. Who would have thought he would end up as arguably the best piece from the Shields/Myers deal?
BoldyMinnesota
The shields-Myers trade really turned into the Davis-odorizzi trade. Mainly because Tampa only turned Myers into Souza

Sounds like TJ

Could be. Greed kills.
Ken M.
Welp!
That leaves the best reliever in mlb, Andrew Miller, as the only elite reliever left, right?
Mikel Grady
Best set up man in mlb
nohitter
Zack Britton, Kenley Janson, Mark Melancon, Aroldis Chapman, and even his teammate Dellin Betances could rival that title. Unless you’re talking about relievers available to acquire before Monday’s trade deadline. Then that’s a completely different story, and can cross out almost every option on the list.

No good news at all. Didn’t Davis complain here just recently about having soreness in his forearm?
chitownsale49
Should have sold high while you had the chance KC
marsupialjones
You mean when they were going to back to back world series???
Seriously, that makes no sense. The past month-ish is the first time the Royals have been out of the playoff hunt in 2 years. When exactly were they supposed to sell him off before now? It would have made zero sense.

As much as I hate the team, I feel awful (if it turns out to be serious) for Davis and the KC fans, they have one of the best fanbases in baseball, IMO.
CodyGadbois
KC is a difficult team to hate
BoldyMinnesota
They employ Ventura and volquez, they are fairly easy to hate. The fans got really if sprang after last year too
BoldyMinnesota
Annoying* wtf
greenmonsternews
Disappointing. Could have seen a deal sending Davis to Boston and Shaw Buccholz to Kansas City.
Ray Ray
I don’t think KC would take that deal even if Davis needs TJ surgery. You do realize they were asking for Giolito for him, right?
gomerhodge71
Great. Davis and Carson Smith could share the same room.
Thronson5
Guess we won’t see a trade now. I was hoping the Dodgers ended up with him.

Good , Wade is an important part of the 2017 team, pack up top prospects with guys like Chris Young and Ian Kennedy to pitching hungry contenders and get ready for next season
mlbscout6 2
The Chris Young and Ian Kennedy contracts are bad, but I don’t think they’d have to send away any top prospects to get rid of them, probably just a fringe guy. I hope Wade Davis gets healthy quick. He’s fun to watch.
