I was actually thinking about a deal involving Wong to KC today. WIth you guys dearth of talent at 2b anywhere, I think he'd be a good idea in KC. But I was thinking alot bigger.
Depending what happens with you guys the next couple weeks, if things bottom out, I'd send Wong, Wacha, and anyone else you wanted outside of anyone with the big club now and Taveras to KC for Shields.

Dayton Moore cannot trade James Shields. It would be career suicide unless the return for him was overwhelming.
He would HAVE to get Taveras back from St. Louis to consider the deal. And it would probably have to be Taveras + something else.
Not saying St. Louis SHOULD offer that, saying that's what it would take to get him or to make it worth KC's while.
