2010 Kansas City Royals Repository thread

All Royals All The Time!

After consultation with others who peruse the game threads we decided to create this as a repository for all things Royals. Minor league news, AL (ahem) Central (thanks Vonne) news and anything Royals can be found here.

alnorth, me and atleast 5 others will continue the game threads as usual. But if you locate something of interest.. ANYTHING.. deals on apparel, best ways in/out of the stadium, giveaways, great stories from this season or from seasons gone by, rumors, trades, anything.... feel free to post it here.

If a big story breaks, you can still start a thread about it. There is merely an all inclusive thread that will make a easy for us all to keep up with all things Royals.


Welcome! "Grab a Brew... don't cost nuthin"...[spills beer on feet]

He is the best player along with DDJ on this team, easily. He isn't overvalued imo

Ah, almost the trade deadline, and the only thing we have left to look forward to this year is how quickly we can dismantle this POS team. As David Byrne once said "Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was....Same as it....ever.....was!"

I'm reminded of my favorite Onion Sports Story ever, from 2005:

Interesting perspective on his place among 1st basemen; I've never thought about it that way. That said, he's younger than those other guys too. He may well get to their level or higher at some point.

I don't see it like this. Rather, it's being honest about the player.

Butler is a very good hitter, not *great* at this point, though he might move into this latter category in the future. I doubt it, but it is possible. However, he has almost no baseball instincts anywhere else on the diamond and is thus a liability in the field and on the bases.

DeJesus is a nice player. Nothing more. Not enough power for the corners; not enough glove for CF.

The "in-division" thing is kind of silly. I guarantee most teams would rather have butler long term than konerko, for one thing. for another, Cabrera and Morenau are both top 5-8 1b in baseball In THE PRIME of their careers. Which Butler hasn't hit yet...

24-year-old hitters with 20-25 HR power (what Butler has - I'm sure he will get to at least 21 again) who hit 40 2nd and are perennial .300 hitters are rare and valuable.

C'mon man there's only room for superstars on this team.

That being said...you do have to analyze where you're at and when you expect to compete. No matter what you have in your system you can't just assume that someone will pan out. Butler's a good hitter and is a fine DH even if he's not your power bat which the Royals desperately need. Move Guillen for anything you can get, put Billy at DH, and give Kila his shot. Gordon can play outfield. It's time to see what we have.

Butler is the last person we need to worry about getting traded, that being said anyone should be available for the right price at this point.

Butler is better defensively than Kila nbut I agree on giving him a shot and getting both in the lineup naming room Gordon works, too.

Just trying to point out: yes, butler has flaws. But there are few run producing 24 year olds I'd rather have.

No kidding. And you're right I wasn't thinking clearly Butler should probably stay at first with kila at DH. We'll see what happens.

Over/under on the number of runs the Yankees will score in a four-game series against a rotation of Chen, Bannister, Davies, and Lerew (perhaps someone else if he's still hurting)?

Let's put the number at 28.

I say "over."
