He didn't ****ing say we look good out there you dumbass. Stop overreacting at game 10 of 162. Please turn off the game and close out of the thread if they're causing you so much misery.

I apologize. Not trying to overreact but just don't see any improvement at all and it's frustrating as hell to see guys like Hosmer, Moose, and butler continue to be complete shit. Not just be bad, but be really really bad.

Pitching is always ahead of hitting to start a season. Hitters get hot later. Baseball is streaky...for every hitter.

Yes that's true pitchers have the advantage early but come on, man. It's like that for every team. I just keep thinking of all the slow starts the royals have had and last year it legitamately cost us the playoffs.

Agreed with slow starts. We seem more consistent at that than other teams. Not sure why?

Who knows? Good to see Duffy out there I guess. Just shitty given the circumstances.

Pitching sure has been our strong point today, couple that with the Twins having that all-too-normal "Hitters get hot later" fact, and that's why this is a tie game...

Wait.................

Love ya dog, hadda give ya shit...

I'm just pissed that we start every season like there was no spring league. And say what you want, our hitting sucks balls. Nobody "fears" anybody in this line up. It they do in the slightest of ways, they hit them!

But Shields will keep walking around grunting and everybody will ignore the 6-run inner and suck his dick because "he has passion"! Yeah, no... He's good, he's just easily rattled even if he doesn't show it.

It is frustrating, very ****ing frustrating, but the baseball season is a long ****ing marathon. You're going to have stretches good and bad no matter how good or bad your team is. If we learned anything from last year it's just that.

Now I'll be the first to admit that I haven't been a fan through all of the losing years like most, so I'm naturally more optimistic than the average KC sports fan. But guys, calm down and take a breath, the beauty of baseball is that no matter how bad your team plays one day (or two) there's always the very next day.

There are stretches, but the royals can not afford a losing month if they want to make the playoffs.
Not panic mode yet, but they better hope not to get down 5 games this month. Or it is a lost month. I would love to see them have a plus ten winning month. I just do not see it.

Hosmer still has a chance to be good. I think Moose has peaked, Butler is peaked or declining. Those two should be batting 8 and 9. I have no earthly idea why none of their drafted hitters all these past years can turn it on average and power wise. Every other team seems to get one or two. Shit is disheartening.

You said they suck so bad and nobody does anything about it in a post a few posts back. What should they have done today to change their chances of winning?

Today is April 12 and they suck. They also sucked April 11.

You are claiming this team sucks permanently after 10 games. You clearly don't watch baseball very often.
