Milwaukee received left-hander Will Smith, who spent most of the past couple seasons shuffling between Kansas City and Triple-A Omaha, and between the bullpen and the starting rotation. Royals general manager Dayton Moore said Thursday he envisions Aoki batting at the top of the order, just as he did with the Brewers. Aoki hit .286 with eight homers, 37 RBIs and 20 steals last season. Aoki gives Kansas City a prototypical leadoff hitter, which will allow left fielder Alex Gordon — who has more power — to slide down in the order and have more chances to drive in runs....
