In a move of perhaps desperation the Royals have added some "leadership" to their club, or at least, some seniority
They shipped Chuck Harrison and Dave Wickersham to the Phillies for Ernie Banks and George Brunet. We certainly got older, but, saved a little bit of coin. Banks will be playing first with Fiore out, freeing up Oliver to help in the much maligned OF.
We also now have 3 veterans to come check out on their milestone marches
Bill Mazeroski- 17 hits away from 2000
Maury Wills-66 hits away from 2000
22 SB from 600
Ernie Banks-38 hits away from 2500
14 HR from 500
On another note the Say Hey Kid got hit # 3000
