ChiefsPlanet - Royals 2013 Kansas City Royals Repository Thread

Eh, the Yankee's offense isn't all that, outside of Cano and to a lesser extent, Soriano. Just isolate Cano, keep him controlled, you should win the game. It's pretty simple as that.

Uh, we're talking about the White Sox here.

But we have to keep in mind that all the wild card guarantees is the ridiculously stupid one-game playoff, which ultimately means they could battle for six months, only to see all hopes dashed in one single game.

Let's shoot for the division.

THIS ! JUST KEEP WINNING, ALL ELSE WILL TAKE CARE OF ITSELF!:)

Plenty of baseball to be played in August and September.

August is our position month. We must have a good August to be in contention, have to play 700 to 800 ball up to the series with Detroit on Aug. 15 - 18, 5 games in 4 days. Cleveland will be at Oakland, basically we have to be within 2 games of Detroit by then and go at least 3 - 2, nothing worst than 2 - 3 to stay in this race for the division.

Detroit is on the road for the next 10 games while we are home, we must make up at least 4 games. 3 of them could come by Cleveland winning and who cares who wins the 4th game between them if Cleveland wins 3 in a row. With this, we must sweep the Twinkies and then continue winning against the Red Sox. Do this and the 5 game set in Detroit is pivotal, keeps us in the division even though we still have games with Cleveland & Detroit left later in the schedule.

The confidence is flowing, continue winning and we can take them, we falter now and it's over with our schedule.

Just saw that. Royals are the top story on ESPN.com... in August. I was going to say I wonder how long it's been since that's happened. Then I realized the last time was probably before the internet.

Ya.

Here's how bad the Kansas City Royals have been during the wild-card era: They would need to win 430 consecutive games just get back to .500 since 1995.

But seriously, I'm looking forward to every game right now, it's amazing.

I noticed the 2003 Royals hit 162 home runs. I guess we had to to overcome the dodgy pitching that year.

After this series with the Twins we'll have about a 3 week stretch of playing against better teams. After that though, it should be smooth sailing for about a month.

So, I guess we'd prefer to have Cleveland win their series against Detroit?
