Despite all of the hate he got this year for his down year (after his franchise record deal), I wouldn't care if he had the exact same year for the remainder of his deal and took the mutual option with the Royals. After his home run in Game 1 of the WS (further again redeeming the end of his first World Series), I wouldn't care if the Royals paid him 200 million. He's my favorite Royal for life (his gold trim jersey actually just came in the mail for me today). I'll always love Hos. I'll always be thankful for him being the swagtastic, clutch badass that he is. My analysis will never be a criticism for what he's done for this franchise.

Hosmer hands down is my favorite player so they can pay all of Glass money he would be worth it. So I can hope take my kids to see him play. I respect your vewpoints Lewdog you know baseball better than I do. I just know what I like and I like Hosmer. He is just fun to watch. |

We won the World Series with what Hosmer did and he is such a cool dude. There are so many aspects to winning it all that have to come in line Hosmer was just a piece of that but he was the piece that fit right to put it all together. I would love to see him hit 30+ homers this year but I still love him no matter what. I'm still celebrating the 2015 WS & for what it's worth that was the greatest thing I've ever witnessed. As much as I love the Chiefs winning the WS is closest thing to SB I have. So my hopes is Kelce can get some of that spark from Hosmer and he can get a SB ring himself and I can celebrate that too. That way I can have two favorites for both of my favorite teams winning Championships Why people have to dis or discount that is beyond me? |

Also, anybody know what the deal is with Alex Rios? He's still a free agent after departing the team LAST season. I know he had a rough go, but surely he got his numbers back up enough to sign a cheap contract with even a shitty team, right? Some kind of injury/age thing where he just fell off the cliff or what?

Alex Rios seemed to save all of his 2015 mojo for some super clutch hits in the playoffs. That however, does not erase that he put up worse offensive numbers than Esky during the season... with far worse defense to go along with it. |

RANKING IN WAR of QUALIFIED 1B 2016 - 14th out of 18 2015 - 9th out of 16 2014 - 16th out of 18 He's not even average at his position. It's really sad he can't play OF, because he has the athleticism and arm yet chooses to waste it at 1B.

Hosmer is my favorite ****ing baseball player that was clutch in helping the Royals win the 2015 World ****ing Series. I mean ****ing ****itty **** ****itty **** ****s. Hosmer made plays when it matter the most he made plays during the season he made plays during the post season and he made plays in the World ****ing Series. Hosmer is a God to me so there is nothing anyone can say to discount his play for the Royals to win a ****ing World ****ing Series. Now it's my hope that Kelce can play to that standard of being clutch in the playoffs and end up winning us a ****ing Super ****ing Bowl. Hosmer is my all time favorite baseball player I think he is the coolest dude on the planet. Kelce is quickly becoming one of my favorite all time football players and that's a longer list than in baseball but he needs to make plays like Hosmer when it matters. Yes this is a rant because Eric Hosmer isn't a second class baseball player he is Royalty. |

Guess who has most RBIs in Royals post season surpassing the great George Brett?

Honestly, you sound like a pissed off 12 year old. We get it, Hosmer's your boy. But seriously, I've not seen this kind of panting adulation from anyone post-puberty...ever. There's some interesting baseball conversation in here and all you want to do is run around like a groupie screaming "ERIC HOSMER IS THE DREAMIEST!!!" Okay...have fun with that. But stop criticizing people that are speaking directly to his performance.
