-I stated this team setup to make this a make or break year by going all in. I will admit this statement might not have been factual as pointed out by many in here.
-I stated this city is a fairweather baseball city. Attendance is down as one poster stated it will go up once school is out. Were only a few weeks into summer the numbers still suck so at best my statement was incomplete but we can visit it again in September.
- I stated this team should go into sell mode after they dropped a perfect chance at getting back into the race a few weeks ago. This statement was factual and now many of you agree but wont want to admit you agree with me. It has nothing to do with just Duffys injury there are many many flaws with this team.
And with that im out. I have nothing personal against any of you but I hope you can accept this team isnt very good and wont be for awhile.
Have a great day!

It's consistent behavior present over a long period of years. You seem to take glee/joy in sharing hot takes that are negative in slant.
It's not butt hurt. It's annoyance.
You caught fire for the "sell now" take because it was erroneous logic. You were basing it on one 3-game series result and saying it had to happen then.
The logical problem there is that it was 3 of 103 games the Royals will play before the trade deadline. That's less than 3 percent.
So yes, it's a lot different saying something like that in mid-May than after 2 additional weeks of games were played (13 more, 12.6
percent of the "they must decide" sample) and the team's best player was lost to injury for two months.

He's not in Omaha. He's at High-A Wilmington but off to a very exciting start there. Slashing .320/.399/.447. Profiles as an above-average defender and good OBP guy.
I could see him playing 2B and leading off for the Royals a few years down the road. Could be a Joe Panik-type contributor, with a touch more speed.
