Royals give:
3B Jung Ho Kang (Pirates) $1 5th
3B Emmanuel Rivera (Royals) $.3 1st

OF Nick Decker (Red Sox) $.3 1st

Padres give:
OF Tirso Ornelas (Padres) $.3 1st
www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=sa3004048&position=OF
Cap change: Royals -$1.3; Padres +$1.3
Reasoning: It took me about two months and many failed offers but I finally got Tirso Ornelas. I'm a huge fan and think he has excellent upside. He was among the youngest players in Low-A and nonetheless put up an above average performance with a .139 iso. The group of players who have performed similarly at 18 is filled with stars (and some busts of course). I'll miss Kang as I am a believer in his rebound. He'll only be 32 this year and hitter's don't forget how to hit over night. He has no real competition at 3b if he hits, as Moran is only an average hitter and weak on D. Anyway, Ornelas fits my competition window better and has more control. Thanks, Bill--fun negotiation.
