Because Danny now has a great put away pitch to both righties and lefties, hitters are trying to stay out of two strike counts. It has completely changed how you have to approach Duffy as a hitter.

Like most sbnation sites, Royals Review is mostly mediocre (and in dire need of a professional copyeditor)

Sitting in the parking lot of the complex. It's such a bitch to park close now. It used to be much easier when they weren't winning. Complaining but not Complaining.

I wouldn't call that shocking. With his contract, I would've been more surprised if someone claimed him.

He can probably do it again in 4 years.

Ah F. Wrong thread.

Anytime we need to light a fire under someone's ass, I'm the Tony Robbins of the board. Alex heard me, and he got motivated

Hey Prison b, i was just going to ask your opinion. Is Gordon going through a great streak right now, or are we living in a crazy upside down world.

Asking for a friend.

Dunno but let's ride it as long as possible. Nuke LaLoosh once said "never f*** with a winning streak"

Horrible year for Gordon and still has a 680 OPS. Not good but much higher than I figured.

His plate discipline kept him from crashing to Esky numbers this year.

Not shocking other than I somehow missed he was put on the waiver wire. It was news to me that somehow fell through the cracks & I missed it.
