Betancourt to the Royals

Joe Hamrahi tweets:

The Royals have acquired SS Yuniesky Betancourt and cash from the Mariners for minor league pitchers Danny Cortes and Derrick Saito!

The Royals are probably the only team to which Betancourt could have gone and represented an upgrade at short.

How much of that contract is going to be paid by the Mariners? I would hope quite a bit.

Is Dayton Moore trying to finish last so he can move the team to Miami or something?

Remember when Dayton Moore assured everyone he finally groked the importance of OBP?

Heh.

I figured Frenchy and Betancourt to the Royals, if only to further mix up their idea of OBP.  It’s not golf, Dayton.  The lower the OBP is not BETTER.

You’re doing it wrong.
