Zack is gone.

Zack was traded today. Brewers send Cain, Escobar, Jeffress, and Odorizzi. OK. It is impossible to judge a trade from the surface. Zack had a 4.17 ERA last year. He was uninterested and pitched poorly. I like the kid and I really enjoyed the Cy Young season. I understand his frustration and why he wanted out. I just don't know how good he is going to be. I'm a Royals fan so I hope he does well, but I want to see Jeffress become a closer. I want to see Escobar shut down the sieve in the middle infield. I want to see Odorizzi with all the lefties in the rotation soonish. Cain is the wild card. If he can be a legit player in the center field mold. IE field well, steal bases and have a high OBP then it was a win for the Royals. If Zack pitches the Brew Crew to the playoffs and wins two more Cy Young awards then, well, good for him and good for the Brewers. I am a Royals fan. Thanks Zack, but go Cain, Escobar, Jeffress, and Odorizzi. I'm really hoping the opening day pitcher isn't Kevin Millwood!!
