    Nori Aoki is easily the most nondescript player in baseball.

        Good player, think he only has 1 year left til he hits FA but the Royals are in WIN NOW mode at this point. Seems like Milwaukee dealt a quality hitter for a JAG lefty arm at first brush.

            My thoughts exactly.

              Yeah, Aoki is a FA after next season. Didn't fit into the Brewers plans because of Davis/Schafer/Gindl.

              I guess Milwaukee's gonna give Smith a shot at starting.

                  When this is your plan, you probably need a new plan.

                      Khris Davis was one of the better players in the 2nd half last year in the league

                        Aoki was a nice player, and the Brewers lineup was a real pain in the ass with Aoki & Segura at the top of the lineup slapping the ball around & doing slappy things. And that was without Braun behind them driving them in.

                        Entire NL Central is happy they traded this guy. Impossible to strike out, and a good fielder too.

                          Don't get this deal at all, dude was a fan favorite and a damn good player. Brewers bring yet another shitty to below average pitcher.

                            Sandy Alderson couldn't send an arm comparable to Will Smith to get this guy and stick him in right?

                            Royals get a perfect top of the order bat with speed.
