The Royals aren't interested in trading recently-demoted third baseman Alex Gordon. Jayson Stark of ESPN.com writes that Kansas City has been receiving calls about Gordon, but they aren't looking to trade the former No. 1 pick. Kansas City has Gordon under control through the 2013 season. "Boy, if I were them," said an exec of one team, "I'd have no problem moving him if could get something for him. I just don't see where he's ever going to be 'that guy.' He's a left-center-field hitter who tries to pull everything. His bat is consistently late on good pitching."
