Josh Anderson to Royals

Posted by Derek Carty at 11:48am

OF Josh Anderson seems to have been traded to the Royals for cash considerations (h/t Rotoworld). With Willie Bloomquist the primary centerfield for KC and RF Mark Teahen rumored to be traded, Anderson may have just seen his value spike. He won't do a whole lot more than steal bases and post an average (or slightly below average) BA, but I'm sure some AL-only teams could stand to add 15 or so steals. If he was dropped recently, he's worth considering. OF Jose Guillen is on the DL, but it's unclear how long he'll be out for.



Derek Carty, 23, has also been published by NBC's Rotoworld, Sports Illustrated, FOX Sports, and USA Today. This season, he'll be contributing to FanDuel and will be linking to all of his work at DerekCarty.com. In his three years competing in expert leagues, he has won 2 titles with 4 top three finishes, including a LABR NL title in 2009, making him the youngest person to ever win a major expert league title. Derek is a proud graduate of the MLB Scouting Bureau's Scout Development Program and is a firm believer in the importance of combining stats and scouting. He welcomes questions via e-mail, Facebook, or Twitter.
