I caught the tail end of Soren Petro's interview with Dayton Moore today in which he apparently asked him about the handling of Butler. Did anyone hear what he said? After the interview was over Petro mentioned something about injury/DL status/roster-something-or-other but I couldn't tell what it all meant. If anyone did hear it, can you tell us what was said?

I frankly can't believe the organization is going to move him to 1B now. First of all, and this has been said but bears repeating, if whoever is in charge of making these decisions thought Butler was ready to play LF in the bigs then either A) that person should be fired for allowing Butler to come up here and embarrass himself or B) that person was right and Butler just needed some time to adjust to the big league game. If the answer is A) then so be it, someone screwed up and everyone needs to move on. However, if the answer is B) then the problems with the Royals as an organization are only going to continue. Can they not see what is right in front of them? This situation with Butler is looking more like Justin Huber's every single day. I almost want to lay money down on one of Buddy Bell's batless sons getting called to Omaha next week to play first base, and Butler getting once again moved back to the OF.

I hope this is all just a lot of frustration over what will turn out to be nothing, but I can't say I am optimistic that it will turn out that way.
