Maxwell in CF...that can't go wrong.

Eibner is hot, I wouldn't mind seeing what he can do at this level.

WIth OF J. Dyson on bereavement list, #Royals recall IF/OF Jimmy Paredes from Omaha (.319/.319.447)

2 more hours til im off and on my way to the K, lets get another sweep

Maxwell in center is a bit worrisome.

So my request for a 50 game series with the Astros has been denied?

Would have to add him to the 40 man and drop someone else through waivers. Probably not a sensible thing to do for 3-4 days, especially since Paredes has been hitting the ball well.

Can Paredes play CF?

Post of the week!

He's only played the corners, from what I can gather. Also has a lot of experience at 3B and 2B.

We only have 39 on our 40-man, 38 after KC puts Hoch on the 60-day DL.

It would start his clock, but I don't think we'd have to waive anyone.

He's played there the most of his career and he's done a pretty good job.

Going to walk up with the family and get tickets. Fantastic weather to go watch a game.

The Bowsers at a Friday night game. Good juju! Hopefully....
