I think this trade is a win-win deal. KC gets a solid leadoff hitter and CIN gets a solid middle rotation arm. I wish Singer best of luck. Now go get Bohm and sign some bullpen and back rotation arms and call it an off season
Woah
I’m not mad.
Is weimer any good?
Wonder if they bring Lorenzen back or if Bubic is getting a rotation spot?
These are both my teams, and honestly such a great trade. Wiemer is a decent young guy who could be a solid outfielder some day. India is a good leader and brings a bat/walks the Royals need. Singer makes the Reds pitching much deeper. Great trade!
A great sign that management is starting this early in the offseason to improve the roster. There will be a lot more to come.
It was time. He needed a fresh start
Nice. I like this
I like the trade a lot. India is better then half our team is right now on the hitting is and our pitching seems to be good. Maybe sign back Lorenzen and call it a day
Great trade. Singer is a flat track bully. He put up huge numbers vs CWS and other garbage teams and got destroyed by any lineup with good LHHs.
If it was just India and Singer I’d be kinda ehhh on this but adding in Weimer sweetens this a lot. A former top prospect, still 25, this could be a Kyle Isbel replacement at minimum long-term and, hopefully, an improvement overall eventually.
Also India looks like a pirate so that’s a big vibe win for us.
Where is he going to play with massey being better defensively at 2nd are they going to put him in OF or at 3rd to platoon with Garcia or trade Garcia and play india 3rd
This is a fantastic trade
Personally, I would have made a play for Bohm if I’m dealing Singer but I understand they were looking for OBP to put in front of BWJ, Sal and Vinnie. Weimer feels more like a scratch off ticket than a potential starting OF but there must be something there they like. I can see Bubic easily replacing Singer in the rotation or possibly even Kyle Wright if he is ready to go next spring.
I give it a B.
Pretty even trade honestly. But I’ll miss Brady.
Good deal for both team, I thought we would get India for singer straight up, I am fine with an lottery ticket outfielder
WOW, okay. I’ll miss Brady but this is a deal we could all be happy about
Will be wonderful to have somebody on base when Bobby bats for a change 🙂
Keep going!
Brady Singer went out crooning on a high note. Good luck in Cincinnati.
Wiemer could be a 20/20 player in the outfield. India will be a great leadoff hitter and play second base, which creates a logjam with Massey and Garcia on the infield.
I thought Singer was at a sell high stage and a good option to acquire a solid major leaguer.
I’ll miss him, but I have a feeling the Royals have more moves in motion.
I like it, we will have to see but I think this is as good as Singer is going to be.
I was just starting to like this fuckin guy
I like this trade a lot. Time will tell, but it feels like both teams are gone make out well on this one.
Can’t wait for next year!!
Good trade. I hope the Royals can develop Wiemer, his slash line is not the best
I think Singer is pretty underated so sucks to see him go but India’s profile (OBP guy with gap power) is exactly what KC needs.
Im a bit confused how he fits in defensively being thst he is exclusively a 2B but that can be figured out.
Love it. Brady’s stats are good and all, but can’t help but feel the reds park is really bad for him. He seems due for regression. Love finally getting a concrete leadoff hitter. Most people clowning this trade clearly didn’t see us so desperate for one that we turned to under .300 OBp Massey. (He wasn’t terrible there just not a leadoff guy)
Love it. Gonna miss Singer more so because he’s a good dude and his heart was always in it, but I felt like you either got really good Singer or really bad Singer with him. Excited for India, we needed another solid bat and the guy can walk. Let’s go!
wonder if Weimer means the end of Blanco and/or Waters. Anyone seen if we ended up non-tendering anyone today?
This is an alright opening move. India is an on base guy which we needed ahead of Witt but he doesn’t add much else. Singer is a back end of the rotation starter. Kind of a wash and hopefully India is rejuvenated and gives us some of what he was his rookie year.
Singer wasn’t great, but for an organization that has struggled to develop starting pitchers 2 open spots in the rotation is concerning. My biggest question for the organization is what now? Lynch, Bubic and Marsh are all 4A pitchers. I haven’t seen much that makes me think they are anything other than injury replacements/spot starters on a good staff. There isn’t much to speak of above High A. So how do they plan to fill out the rotation? Do they add a free agent or two? Do we cross our fingers and hope one of those three is serviceable?
It’s early in the off season so there is plenty of time to figure it out. This is a decent start to the off season. Excited to see what else we do!
