[JS] Interview with Royals GM Dayton Moore
http://tinyurl.com/49hrbhv by John Sickels
1. What is a typical day like for you during Spring Training?
2. As good as the farm system is, there is a lot of frustration among
Royals fans that it hasn't translated into major league success yet.
There is a lot of talk about "The Process." But fans don't seem to
know what "The Process" means. How would you define it?
3. I think the fans understand that, but there is concern about how you
make that transition from having a strong farm system to actually seeing
the results in the majors.
4. Ok, let's get more specific. The Royals are universally considered to
have the deepest farm system in the game right now. On the hitting side,
you have Mike Moustakas, Eric Hosmer, and Wil Myers, all outstanding bats
drafted out of high school. How difficult is it to project high school
hitters? That is something I've had a lot of problems with personally.
5. So how do you do it? How do you project these hitters?
6. Anything else you look for?
7. Let's talk about some specific players. Mike Moustakas: can he stick at
third base, and do you have any concerns about his ability to hit
left-handed pitching?
8. Eric Hosmer?
9. Kila Ka'aihue?
10.Does moving Wil Myers to the outfield boost his timetable for promotion?
There's been some comment that his swing mechanics are unorthodox.
11.Two players who had great years in Double-A were Johnny Giavotella and
Clint Robinson. How do they fit in your plans?
12.Can Christian Colon stick at shortstop?
13.Brett Eibner, he was a two-way player at Arkansas. How did you decide
he was more of a hitter than a pitcher?
14.As good as the hitting is, the pitching is also outstanding, especially
lefthanders Mike Montgomery, John Lamb, Dan Duffy, and Chris Dwyer. And you
have another group beyond them like Will Smith, Buddy Baumann, and Everett
Teaford. Was gathering so many lefties something you did on purpose?
15.Tim Collins is an interesting acquisition. There is the
stereotype of the situational lefty, but I think his stuff is good enough
that he doesn't have to be limited to that role.
16.You have all these lefties but less depth in right-handers. But the
Greinke trade brought in a couple of good right-handers in Jake Odorizzi
and Jeremy Jeffress from the Brewers. Where does Odorizzi start?
17.Jeffress has a great arm but there are the inevitable makeup questions.
18.Finally, what do you think is the biggest weakness in the farm system?
