Can't help but love this guy. I hope he sticks with the Royals after his playing days (as a coach in the organization somehow).

I still am confident Chen is replaced in the rotation by June/July, but even if he isn't ... still a major upgrade from Davis and Mendoza.

I think his point is that overall, our pitching is actually stronger. And I agree with him. There's a point when "anti-homerism" starts to cloud our judgment the other direction. As long as Chen only starts half the year and either Duffy or Zimmer supplement at some point, I think we're going to enjoy the results of this year's pitching staff. Next year, bring on Manaea....

I'm surprised Cleveland is so low... I expect them to be pretty damned good this year... I'd put them closer to 84 I think. KC has obviously been part of the betting strategy this year.

I think Cleveland is going to underperform. They had a great year last year and exceeded expectations...I just don't see them repeating that this year.

Cleveland had an unbelievably great year and will be hard-pressed to repeat. Their record against cellar dwellers was ridiculous. Their 1 run victories was also high. But Francona DOES seem to make brownies out of horse$hit

The Royals are PROBABLY not as effective in the No. 2 spot in the rotation as in 2013. But they should be the same, basically, at the top, and better at 4 and 5. There's also the potential to be MUCH better at the No. 3 spot than a year ago. Bullpen likely takes a small step back but is still an elite unit.

Tito is a good manager. Cleveland will be a contender for the division crown.
