If I'm the Rays, and KC was offering Myers for Shields straight up, I'd jump all over it. They'd get a young 20s corner outfielder who could 30+ HR/year for the next seven years for a guy who will surely walk when his contract is up.

On the other end of that, are the Royals really close enough to trade arguably the best hitting prospect inbaseball? I'm not so sure. Shields would definitely give them a huge boost, but I don't think he makes them more than an 80 win team.
