***Official Let's Beat the Damn Twins (v. Royals) 4-13***

Jenson71 · 04-13-2008, 07:04 AM

The Royals turn to Brian Bannister (2-0) today to try to put a halt to a three-game losing streak and avoid being swept by the Twins.

Banny should keep them in the game, but they need to start bunching some hits. I don't know what their overall average is with runners in scoring position, but it's been horrendous the last three games.

It's been a whole four years since the Twins have had back-to-back-to-back shutouts against the Royals.

Break the dry spell Minnesota!

I really hate losing to the Twins. They have a crap rotation, yet we're still not driving in runs. I have no doubt we'll pick it up as the season goes on, but it's going to hurt if we get swept by the damn Twins.

I didn't think that the Royals would have the worst offense in the majors this year, but perhaps they do. With Banny on the mound, all the Royals need is an average offensive day. Then again, that's all they needed last night... and apart from Teahen's misplay, it would have been enough for Meche, too.

I think the Royals that showed up the past two or three nights is much closer to how this team will play over the course of the season that the Royals team of last week, but even still, I expect them to score at least 2 runs a game.

Guillen's casual attitude is getting old quick.

Jenson71 · 04-13-2008, 12:19 PM

Bannister ends with a backwards K, but the Twins get a run in thanks to Guillen's damn drop. 1-0 bad guys.

Demonpenz · 04-13-2008, 12:20 PM

no way am I going back out to the K for a blanket after that cluster**** yesterday!

Gathright, German, and Pena. A vintage Royals power lineup today.

Jenson71 · 04-13-2008, 12:21 PM

Gathwright gets an infield single! Look at that speed!

Jenson71 · 04-13-2008, 12:22 PM
