Royals notebook: Callaspo honored for special achievement

Royals second baseman Alberto Callaspo, the subject of offseason trade rumors, was honored Friday afternoon as this year’s winner of the Joe Burke Special Achievement Award. The Burke Award is named in honor of the club’s former general manager and president. It dates to 1971 and has evolved in recent years to a way of recognizing a player who is not selected as the club’s...

Odds & Ends: Astros, Schmidt, Callaspo

A few Thursday evening links to browse through.... MLB.com's Brian McTaggart reports that the Houston Astros will decrease their spending in 2010, after the team's payroll exceeded $100MM the first time in 2009. Filing for free agency may have just been a formality for Jason Schmidt, according to Ken Gurnick of MLB.com. The 36-year-old righty looks headed for retirement. Dick Kaegal of MLB.com hasn't...

Royals Links: DeJesus Rumors, Chunky Moose, Gold Glove Outrage, Rugby Cheerleaders, Bill Simmons, Lech Walesa and Rany's Return

The big news in Royalsville are the DeJesus rumors and the announcement that Alberto Callaspo did not qualify for arbitration as a Super Two. Expect Moore to get great anti-value for these guys any day now. The little news, but maybe a growing meme, is the Mike Moustakas weight gain. Sickels brought back a negative report from Arizona, and I've seen at least one other reference as well. If you're into...

Royals Prefer Trades

Bob Dutton of the Kansas City Star dishes on the Royals... Dayton Moore...step away from the free agent market. The Royals are moving toward trades, with an eye on the long-term. Owner David Glass says the plan is to "turn over some of the club." Moore already made a nice move in flipping Mark Teahen for Josh Fields and Chris Getz. Dutton again mentions the talks between the Dodgers and Royals...

Royals' Callaspo fails to qualify for arbitration

Royals second baseman Alberto Callaspo fell five days short of qualifying for arbitration under the labor agreement’s super-2 provision. That figures to cost him several hundred thousands of dollars. Third baseman Alex Gordon, as expected, was one of 10 players who qualified for arbitration under the provision. The list was announced Wednesday.

I'm Starting A New Religion Dedicated To Dayton Moore

Its practitioners will read trade rumors regarding the Kansas City Royals and pray to a statue of Dayton Moore that the real life version will make it come true. I presume that based on this rumor , there will be a lot of worshipers. Moore arrives today in Chicago for the annual GM meetings, which typically set the groundwork for possible trades. The meetings run through Wednesday, but the hot stove...

WIndow shopping the 2010 Free Agent Class

Below is the table of most of the available free agents, I've added a column of interest. I have no idea who Ned may be targeting. We know we need a 2nd baseman to replace Hudson/Bellaird, someone in the rotation to replace Wolf, possibly a bullpen piece. Tepid interest for me means that I'd like to have that player on the Dodgers , but that I expect the price to be more then I would like the Dodgers...

Questions about Analyzing Defense

I've been looking at Alberto Callaspo 's UZR numbers and I've got some questions about how to use UZR to project for the coming year. Fangraphs has been reviewing the best fielders from 07-09--pointing out that one season of UZR is equivalent to about 1/3 season of batting (in other words, it takes 3 seasons of UZR to have a good grasp on a players ability. Last year Callaspo was not good (-7.3), in...

2010 Hitters/Fielders - Snapshot of the roster

Similar to the 2010 Relievers post from several days ago, this is meant to present a snapshot of who remains on the roster, can we jettison some dead weight, and are there any holes to be filled? The particulars about how many batters the team keeps on the 25-man and how many infielders/outfielders/Teahen-Bloomquist-IF/OF hybrids are kept will have a factor in the final roster (please allow some leeway...
