Which makes your entire thesis completely absurd and stupid.

Except it wasn't a strike, dumbass.

I was not defending Crow. Point me to one post or word that suggests he pitched well in that performance. I was making the rather simple to understand point that the pitch Bourn doubled off of him was a pitcher's pitch. Completely irrespective of everything else, that was a hard pitch to hit, and yet Bourn still managed to hit it well.

That's a textbook example of bad luck, just like Chen's performance was a textbook example of good luck.

It's not that hard to figure out, but since you are the type that needs the "CAUTION: HOT" warnings on coffee cups, I'm not surprised that you have to invent a narrative about what I didn't say rather than analyzing what I actually said.

That was not "bad luck". That was Crow getting bombed like he usually does.

The pitch Bourn hit most certainly was. I said nothing else about the rest of Crow's appearance, and I don't know how someone who is functionally literate could assume otherwise.

God, Moose is useless. Just utterly useless.

I've defended him as long as anyone but after a 2 week turnaround, he is back to a solid month of just shit.

Remind me again what the difference is between Moose and Francouer?

Dartgod 07-14-2013 02:49 PM

F

As in, yet another failed season.

BlackHelicopters 07-14-2013 02:54 PM

Grade:D. No leadership. No drive. Bullpen collapsing. No offense. Starting pitching gets a B.

Collins is interesting. I'm wondering if we're starting to see all of the innings that he's logged finally take a toll on his tiny body.

Because he's been ****ing terrible lately.

Al Bundy 07-14-2013 03:43 PM

The Royals are the only team that doesn't have a single player with 10 home runs.

gblowfish 07-14-2013 03:55 PM

Royals now have three....THREE....all stars.

Still in third place.

Still have best record at the break in ten years.

On Tuesdays you get a T-Shirt.

There's a carousel in the outfield experience.

Little K Celebrity softball!

Relish Bobble Head!

(Royals PR machine furiously polishing the turd....)

Which Royals player has the highest batting average?
That would be James Shields @ .333.

Hosmer's average is now higher than both Gordon and Perez.

No Royals starter is hitting over .300.

Baltimore's Davis has broken the Royals season home run record, BEFORE the ASG.


Sigh....

And, I'd like to bestow a special award on Rex Hudler for performing for the Royals front office above and beyond the call of duty.

This special gold "Polished Turd" award is for you, Hud.

Nobody shines it like you do! Now go enjoy a bunch of bong hits and keep that shinola handy. You're gonna need it come September!

Well, on the positive side, we are having our best season in 10 years, and several players are underperforming. What happens if they start playing up to potential?
