Since a lot of this post focuses on starting pitching: I think the Royals are nearing that point to make the James Shields acquisition again. Trade prospects to get that guy to lead the rotation, throw 200 effective innings and have at least two years of team control.
I was actually hoping Lance Lynn would make it to free agency, but that ship's sailed. What do you think, Lesky?
