It would be a perfectly Royal thing to happen if we were to lose Gordon. Just throw another turd on the pile.

Yeah, I don't know why the Royals would want to offer him a major league contract. Dude is already better than 2/3rds of what they have sitting on the bench.

The Royals are a ****ing joke any more-I can't believe they aren't willing to make him part of the 40 man roster.

I really do feel sorry for this team. As a Yankee fan I'm sure it really doesnt matter how I feel, but for you Royal fans, you have my sympathy...

Actually, I am taking the Royals side here.
The Cards signed Rick Ankiel and J.D. Drew to major league contracts a few years ago and both turned into disasters that ended up costing the Cards rosters spots as well as big bucks. Baseball picks are a crap shoot -- much moreso than even football -- Pujols was picked in something like the 20th round and Drew was the number 1 or 2 pick in the draft. Pujols worked his way through the system and THEN got his big contract. That is the way it should be. Drew sucked and Ankiel was a head case. Neither were worth the roster spots or signing bonuses. As I said, I am with the Royals on this one. Screw this guy. |
