I'm not feeling negative about the Royals just yet. Our hitting and our bullpen need to get their shit together though or sub 500 is on it's way. I won't feel negative unless we get swept by Detroit.

Hos and Moose are supposed to be blue chip players, not cow chip players.

The Royals are 5th in the American league in hitting. The hitting isn't the problem. Scoring is the problem. I really think the Royals problem is that their lineup is messed up. We'd score more runs if the auto outs were clustered together at the bottom of the lineup instead of spaced out every other hitter.

Moose and Hosmer have been horrible this year. Losing games in the 8th and 9th inning sucks a big fat one. This team is so frustrating.

I think extra base hits are fine. We're 7th in doubles in the AL which is middle of the pack and 4th in triples. Obviously home runs are not good, but we're very bad at taking walks. Only Minnesota is worse in the entire major leagues. There are plenty of walks KC could be taking but they are just so aggressive at the plate they don't take enough pitches to put them in position to take a walk IMO.
