Now I know how it feels like to be a Raiders fan.

It's ironic that any single game could be this demoralizing for this year's Royals team.

10 days ago, after the Marlins series, the Royals were looking in good shape. Then the ****ing bottom completely dropped out of the season. *snaps fingers* Like that.
It's just so hard to be a fan of this franchise anymore. And I say that as someone who's followed the team for 33 years. Just when you start thinking there's a glimmer of hope, just a speck that you could grab onto with a pair of tweezers, that's all, not asking much ... BOOM they kick you in the nuts again. And again. And again ... |

A couple of weeks ago, I might have said, "ah well, they could go on a winning streak, too, they're that kind of team".
Don't think I believe that now. This is pathetic. They may struggle to stay above 100 losses yet again. |

WTF Happened? I leave for a little bit with the Royals winning thinking the hapless streak is over. And I come back to find out they give up 6 runs the last 2 innings and they lose.

The flipside to this game is the old argument that anyone can close a game. I think bullpen parts are often replaceable, but sometimes I think people underrate the ability of a pitcher to be "clutch"... in terms of not melting down when trying to get the last 3 outs, when they're usually otherwise a good pitcher.

I wish they'd start making some changes, even cosmetic ones just to shake things up. Dayton would probably not do it, thinking it reeks of panic and desperation, which it might, but my God, what a demoralizing time.
I dunno, fire Barnett the hitting coach, he's a handy scapegoat (although they scored 8 tonight). Can TPJ, play Callaspo and/or call up Aviles, bring up Maier, bench or trade Teahen (whose value is probably nil) ... whatever. |
