Colon = nothing in the tank, past his prime
Burnett = same, just a few year younger. Colon had a few decent years with the Angels, Blue Jays & Indians, but well past his prime. Neither has has great careers, but has stayed around to contribute something..... to eat up innings.

Given our roster and needs, I will flip my ****ing shit if we give up anything of ANY substance for a middling pitcher.

I haven't been able to pay much attention to the Royals in a few weeks so I didn't even know he was on the DL.

Vargas has been throwing and should be back within a week or two. If KC is going after a starter it is to add depth in the case that Duffy and/or Ventura are shut down in September, IMO. While our rotation is good, there's nothing outside of the five guys besides Chen.. need depth.

Vargas threw a simulated game today. I can't imagine they are too worried.

So if Ned Yost makes it to the end of the season, he'll be the longest-tenured manager in Royals history. Think about that.

Well, losing a one run game at home to a clearly inferior opponent while in the playoff chase will surely motivate these guys to bring in a power hitting right fielder (from somewhere, anywhere), right?
Right? |

I'm going to see our Royals in Phoenix next week. If they play like this against an awful Dbacks team I'll attack Yost.
