Volz could move into the bullpen next season for the Royals. LegendofJedLowrie.com \| RoyalRooters.com Last Edited By: Curll84 07/30/11 3:22 PM. Edited 1 time.

Listen, Theo phan-boyz, your crazy spin can't hide the fact that Terry Francoma is a TOTAL MORAN, John Lackey not only walks too many people but also rapes, kills, and then eats kittens, and JD Drew actually died 2 months ago and is only playing as a partially-reanimated corpse. - BriantheTaoist

I feel as if Navarro is better and more versatile than Mike Aviles right now. Truly mystifying unless it's a pre-cursor to a 3-way deal.

I also find his bat twirl very annoying for someone who is not much of an offensive threat. Poorest spending of $3 million that I have ever seen.-fcastig 0220

Both teams sent out press releases, so it's definitely not a misreport.

Rookie Posts: 26 07/30/11 3:31 PM	I think Aviles is heading else were mybe LA Furcarl just got traded. Still This deal makes no sense it is a joke. This package of players could of been better used to get a OF along the lines of Williamgham or a good RP along the lines of Balfour. Wow I cant believe this crap seariously.

Veteran Member Posts: 3052 07/30/11 3:41 PM Veteran Member	The problem with flipping him is that the Red Sox just traded a shortstop to get a shortstop. That doesn't really set them up to trade away a shortstop. I guess the logic here is that Aviles has a track record of providing the kind of production the Red Sox would hope to get from Navarro.
