Royals 2009 Kansas City Royals Repository. - Page 62

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 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]

I can't believe I was actually suckered into believing this team was going to contend for the ALC. The Royals look so completely lost right now, at just about everything they do, with the exception of their starting pitching - which has been solid.

The KCR's are our little version of the Keystone Cop's: Cute, Funny, Pathetic and (unfortunately) 100% reliable in the worst way possible.

Unfortunately, I find this post to be 100 percent accurate.

After our left Coast trip when we went 0-5, in Mid May, I said we'd be 14 games under .500 by the ASB.

I still got a shot.............

From Jason Stark per mlbtraderumors.com

# The Royals will listen on anyone but Zack Greinke, but that doesn't mean they're looking to deal starters. They're "reluctant" to deal Brian Bannister, Kyle Davies or Gil Meche, who has a no-trade clause.
# The Phillies were looking at Juan Cruz, who the Royals say they'd only deal for an upper-tier prospect ready to make a big-league impact.
# The Braves are trying to deal Jeff Francoeur everywhere, but no one's interested. One front-office guy says his team would be interested if Francoeur's non-tendered.
# Officials are divided on whether Yunel Escobar could be dealt, but a trade is unlikely at best.

Reluctant to trade Davies?

Ok, Dayton.

What's surprising is Dayton doesn't want Frenchy? I assume he is the front office guy that wants him when he's non tendered

we better make some ****ing deals

Diamond Leung is reporting that the Dodgers traded Stephen Randolph to the Royals, though it has not been officially announced yet.
Randolph became a starter for Triple-A Albuquerque and succeeded, giving up one run in the entire month of June. With the Royals, Randolph could get a chance to start at some point.

I told you our trading would not be anything to write home about. Probably gave up Guillen or Teahen for this bullshit too

I wouldn't trade Soria for anything less than an immediate starting player who can mash.
