Huber traded

Justin Huber has been freed. The Royals traded him to the Padres for a PTBN.

GM Dayton Moore:

"And for us, the way our club was shaping up, we just didn't see any opportunity for him to be on our team. He was out of options, and I just wish we had more time, because he had a terrific spring and we think he's going to be a good hitter. It just didn't work out."

I'm gonna call BS on that quote. I like Moore but if he was ever interested in seeing what Huber could do then he would have made sure that Huber got more than 10 at bats last September. For whatever reason he was never given playing time and was never gonna it in KC. So I wish him luck in San Diego and hopefully he gets a chance to show he belongs in the big leagues.
