I'll be there, hoping for a good game

HAVE to win this game tonight with BGJ on the mound. Hard to believe we are going to be able to get Verlander again, and we need to win a min of 2 of 3 this weekend to keep hope alive

This is why I don't like the unbalanced schedule. It doesn't matter for the division, but for Wild Cards, we'd argue that we had to face Detroit's lineup more often, and the Yankees and Orioles would argue that the AL East might be better top to bottom, but there'd be no question if we all played the same schedule. You can't do that in the NFL, but you could easily do it or come close in baseball.

Might be?

Hey, this is a Royals thread. We're allowed our delusional biases here.

The f? Do you just troll Royals threads to see what MIGHT be said about the Orioles. LMAO

The Royals are 19-15 vs the East. I wish we played in that division!

in for the win!!!!

let's goooooo royals!!!!

Just purchased my ticket for tonight's game.

In. Go Royals!

This is either the beginning of the beginning or the beginning of the end

Royals FTW!

LMAO

Jesus dude. Reaction time was 3 minutes. Do you do anything else besides Chiefsplanet and twitter?

It's been said before, but this time really is, really, really, the last chance for this team. For real. Probably.
