The would be a great trade. The Royals could then get a consistent 17 game loser.

The Giants stole Melly Cabrera. The Orioles stole Jason Hammel.
That is what this trade tells me.

too subpar pitchers’ swap. neither will help or be a major detriment to the team, although Guthrie is a better pitcher. I expect Sanchez to give up quite a few more homers in between the walks…

That’s like swapping a ticket from the Titanic for one on the Lusitania.

Can’t fault either team for trying to unload a hugely disappointing player… unfortunately, they’d each be getting another one. I guess this is the proverbial “change of scenery” deal.

This is a complete win for the Rockies. Coors Field was a horrible fit for Guthrie. He’ll do fine in KC. I can’t see Sanchez improving in Coors, plus he’s already been worse than even Coors Field Guthrie so far this year.
