Dayton Moore has been busy the last two days. He traded closer (and one of my favorites) Mike MacDougal to the White Sox for two minor league pitchers.
Moore then traded middle reliever Elmer Dessens to the Dodgers for Odalis Perez and two more pitching prospects. The Dodgers also tossed in $8 million in cash to help cover Perez' salary.
Then tonight, just before game time, Moore announced another trade - Tony Graffanino to the Brewers for Jorge De La Rosa.
In two days, Moore traded 3 middle of the road players for six - count them, six - pitchers. It's obvious that Moore's priority is to build pitching depth.
Here are the new Royals pitchers:
Odalis Perez
Jorge De La Rosa
Blake Johnson
Julio Pimentel
Tyler Lumsden
Daniel Cortes

So, in your spare time... Are you planning on digging a little in the new Royals pitchers and outline what they've done and how they'll fit (in your humble opinion, of course!)
Umm... I guess I mean besides providing their stats.
