Time For Pena to Go???
 
Lack of fundamentals and terrible in-game managment of pitchers has cost us probably 50% if not more of our losses.

The latest....Pena pulls a hot Sisco after he gets thr first out to put in Burgos with empty bases during a 1-1 game in the 9th. We lost 2-1

Give him a few more weeks, then get rid of him. At this point, it couldn't hurt.

It would probably be best to give him a little more major league talent before you get carried away. The manager is not one of their problems, it is players. Pena is doing fine with what his being dealt.

To think we could of had Buck Showalter. But Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!! Mr Cheap Ass Walmart had to save a few pennies and hire Pena!! :cuss::banghead::cuss::banghead::cuss::banghead:

This may rile you, friend....but this is affirmative action in work: if he had been white, Pena woulda been gone LAST year. JMHO.

I'd say it's time for you to accept the Royals for what they are.

I feel bad for any manager. They have no talent to work with.

Hey, if we lose out in April, which is quite possible (if not probable given those games are against the Twins & White Sox) we'll be behind the pace set by the '62 Mets.............for wins.

Bottom line.........I like Pena, but we need a change.

If Terry Francona, Joe Torre, Bobby Cox, Tony LaRussa, or the manager from the Angels (I forget his name-too lazy to look it up) coached us we still wouldnt go .500. It's all about business and David Glass is a businessman, not a baseball fan. Until he leaves, we will never have a somewhat respectable baseball team in KC.

Glass is cheap! He's ruining our team! Why doesn't he spend $200 million so we can win!

Whoa, channeled petegz28 there for a minute. Sorry about that.
