I'm not sure who has pitched better this year Santana or Shields. I'm gonna go with Santana.

I won't go that far but, I would say we are on the right track. Considering they go on a losing streak every time they have gotten back or close to .500, if they actually get above by the deadline then I will like our chances.

Agreed, but it's also the matter of being no more than at least 6 games behind 1st in general as well, regardless of the record. Anything can happen in 2 months (August and September)

For most teams I eould agree with this. For the Royals, who have a couple of decades worth of a losing mentality, I'm not so sure.

If KC can get something of the following: 2 out of 3 against Detroit 2 out of 4 against Baltimore 2 out of 3 against Chicago That to me is the best scenario. It's hard to take 3 out of 4 in a 4 game series, but it's also possible. On the other hand, it's also possible to go 1 out of 3 against the Tigers, 1 out of 4 against Baltimore, and 1 out of 3 against Chicago.... That being said, I do really believe that the Royals would have been so much better, record wise, if it wasn't for two black holes on 3rd base and 2nd base....

Twins just beat Cleveland... nice to gain on both them and Detroit for once.

And that, to me, is the problem. They either have to win big -- to get back in it -- or to lose big, to convince them they are out of it and trade Santana, etc. Instead, I think the worst-case scenario is they just kind of keep tottering along, never really getting in it or out of it ... which means Dayton believes they're in it. He's vindicated, he tries to win now, and on and on. |
