2012 Kansas City Royals Repository Thread
2012 Slogan: Our Time

A better, more accurate 2012 Slogan: It is Finally Next Year
(from Great Expectations)

An alternative slogan if you don't like that one: Someone has to win this crappy division
(from alnorth)

With the beginning of a new year, it is time for the 2012 version of the Royals Repository Thread. We've got Hosmer, we've got a 2011-dominating Gordon, we've got Moose, we've got hopefully a killer bullpen, we've got a stereotypical slow slugging DH, we've got easily one of the best defensive shortstops in the AL, we've got a promising catcher in Salvador Perez. Hell, we've got offense and promising prospects galore.

We do not have starting pitching.

Oh yeah, we've also got this:



Get ready for, (as of January 2012 anyway), one of the most confusing puzzles of a baseball season in recent Royals history. Will they suck? Maybe, I don't know. Will we be given a year of 0.500 baseball? Possibly, I don't know. Will they win the division and go to the playoffs for the first time in 27 years? For the first time in a long time, it could happen, I don't know. 92 losses, 92 wins, or anything in between would not surprise a lot of us.

Everything goes here except Gameday threads and really big news. If a giant story breaks, the Royals achieve some awesome milestone, or we sign/lose a highly significant player/coach/mascot/whatever, then it might also deserve its own thread. This being Chiefs Planet, please do not clutter the board with new threads about trivial Royals news or you will only annoy those who come here for just Chiefs football. If you aren't sure and its not a Gameday thread, it goes here.

What sort of stuff often goes here? SPchief explained it well, so I'll just copy that:

Quote:
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 they'd gambled on, say, Erik Bedard instead, it would look a lot better.

Jackson just wasn't an option. All I was saying.

Moore has shown he will push the payroll higher for starting pitching in the past. He needs to do it in this offseason. With the plethora of proven starters that are going to be out there, there's no excuse for him not to.
Saves glass money?? The more we spend, the less we get from the league??

That would be sweet if we could get him, but the odds are he would re-sign, yes?? We need to spend the money on 3starters next year to be a playoff team imo..

I'd be happy with two.

Some combination of Anibal Sanchez/Brandon McCarthy/Gavin Floyd/Shaun Marcum/Edwin Jackson can be had for $25 million per year.

Sanchez and Marcum are my favorite two.

Anibal Sanchez
Marcum
Chen
Paulino
Montgomery/Hochevar/Verdugo/Adcock/Lamb/Odorizzi

Would look a heck of a lot better than what they're rolling out there now.

That would look fantastic, but it's a dream at best. According to USA Today, we're sitting at a ML payroll of 60 million, and DM has consistently alluded to the bullshit number of 2.5 million fans to break 80 million (or was it 75...).

Anyway, I just don't see it. We'll likely make a push for one guy, and this guy will be the cheapest option of the above list because "that's what our market allows." Vomit.

Yeah, but I figure $10 million of that (Sanchez and Broxton) gets reassigned elsewhere prettily easily.

That would give them quite a bit of room, and enough to spend $20-25 million on FA starters.

Not saying it WILL happen. Saying it CAN and SHOULD.

That would be the best five man staff the Royals fielded in quite some time. I really like the idea of the Royals signing Anibal Sanchez. I would be shocked if they went out and signed two big money pitchers. History just doesn't give me a lot of hope.
