Thanks, pete. In my mind, Soria HAD to make that play. Plus, it wasn't hit that hard either. Soria's gotta man his effing position.

We dfa'd infante

Add in mediocre defense and you have an average team.

Whit is a blackhole. Can't field his position (as shown in the bottom of the last inning) and can't hit. No hit Whit is a dead spot in the order.

BTW you saw how pissed off Soria was at No hit Whit for misplaying the easy play and letting the 2nd run score.

I see that.. he looked completely lost. Didn't play any defense there. Omar Whitfante.

Soria can eat shit, he has no room to bitch

derp

Al, I fear you are really taking this too hard. Whit is ok at 2nd base; he'll never be a Gold Glover, but he's ok. Actually, his real value is that he can play anywhere. He needs to be a utility guy, but he's still a decent second baseman.

Stinking Soria should have made that play. Period.

Anyway, hang in there buddy.

Just not the same team as last two years. Injuries (and maybe two long Octobers?) have taken there toll on this team.

Even if we don't make it to the playoffs this year (which is looking pretty likely), some young guys got some valuable playing experience and we will be re-loaded and ready to go next year.

Never thought we'd miss Vargy so much. Be nice to have his consistency back next year. We'll just need to find another starter to replace Volquez.

BTW Omar Whitfante did allow the second run to score by not playing defense and dropping the ball.

Whats amazing to me is how Al Bundy isn't considered the biggest moron in Royals threads.

If he is a troll, his level is grand master.

I think this has a lot to do with it.
