Kind of have to wonder if he's a candidate to jump AAA, especially as a college arm.

Random thought I had today, hope someone with more knowledge than me can answer:
Isn't Dayton's contract supposed to run out after the 2014 season? So is baseball like football in the sense that most managers/GMs don't hit their "lame duck year" without getting either extended or fired? If so, should we expect any action on Dayton after this season or does Glasshole care enough to do anything? Just trying to find a way that we can get out of this no man's land we're currently in. Not good enough to contend, not bad enough to blow it up... |

... and KC wins while Detroit loses. The Royals are now 7 games back, far enough so their chances are not great, but not so far in July to where you should give up. The purgatory continues...

We'll see where we are after these next 6 games. I would think that if we aren't within 5 after the Twins series, it would be a disappointment.

It's a brutal position. The odds really aren't in their favor, but I'd guess a large portion of the ticket-buying fan base will think same old cheap Glass if they sell sitting near .500 at the beginning of August, and still having a ton of games against the teams ahead of us.

The Royals probably should give up, but they can't. We have done JUST BARELY ENOUGH so that giving up right now would be a disaster. Even as a logical baseball fan who would probably be fine with it, even I can feel it. I honestly, truly do not want to trade Santana. I just do not want to do it, even though I know we should...

They will make a feel good, underdogs, comeback miracle movie about this season after the things we do these next three months.
It's got it all. The star player finally figuring it out. The magic sauce. The legend returning. The rookie nobody really wanted at first because the rookie we really wanted got traded. The absolute low point in the season where no one was good for a month. Parting ways with the "nice" guy with a "nice" smile. The constant struggle of one run games. The script is writing itself. This move will have a better ending than Moneyball. |

Royals need to be buyers and sellers. Look for a blockbuster deal for any of our current players while trying to field a team that win the rest of the year, while building next year's squad. I know a bunch of you will piss and moan about it, but **** off we need some wins.
