If you put a 38 win team in the NBA playoffs they would never win, but a 75 win team could win the WS.
I get that completely but it's difficult for me to write off a team that's won 3 of the last 5 WS.

As I stated earlier, I think the best match up for the Royals is the Dodgers but we're three months from any scenario at this point.

Cueto certainly makes them a more dangerous team, much more so than Shields at this point last year and I'm happy with the trade but clearly, nothing is guaranteed for us Royals fans.
