[alnorth]

Woops. Forgot the date in the title. Oh well, today is April 15. You could have also seen that it was today by the timestamp of the post, but there you go.

[alnorth]

Omaha's game was cancelled. No one in Wilmington is pitching that we care much about. So, just Will Smith, Wil Myers, and a couple others today in NWA.

[Demonpenz]

Will Smith in NWA lol

[Pasta Little Brioni]

So, is this the game Bedard's arm falls off?

[keg in kc]

They'll be lucky to get this one in if the weather at the stadium is anything like it is here at work.

(And by 'lucky' I mean 'sucks to be a player when it's 40 and raining')

[Coach]

I'm out by the legends, and its not raining too hard.

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

No #Domination tonight :(

[alnorth]

Yeah, I don't think they will have a problem getting the game in. Looks to me like it'll start raining near the end and never really rain that hard.

Those going to the game had better wear layers, a jacket, and bring an umbrella.

[Three7s]

No #Domination tonight :(
Yay for the other spring training king, Mitch Maier. :facepalm:

[stonedstooge]

Just wanted you to know Al your game threads and information are very good. Much appreciated

Looks like another full house


Damn, I could have bought some nosebleed seats and moved down right behind home plate

[Mr. Laz]

Hochevar already looks ready to implode

why in the hell isn't Alice playing? First time in his career that he is actually showing real promise .... need to ride that horse. Fuck the day off.

[Sure-Oz]

BS call

[Sure-Oz]

FUCK!

[Mr. Laz]

slowest dam DP making team in the league

:shake:

[stonedstooge]

Nice throw Evilas

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

Good start

[Coach]

slowest dam DP making team in the league

:shake:

I think they were on a shift though. Plus Aviles didn't do anybody any favors with that ball being thrown a little low.

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

I hate bunting this early, but fuck it

[Coach]

Wow

[Toadkiller]

That looked like he kept his toe on.

[Coach]

Bases are clogged now.....

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

BILLAY

[Sure-Oz]

bases loaded no outs...

[Sure-Oz]

Yes Frenchy swing at a ball up high

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

Come on Frenchy

[acesn8s]

That guy wearing #42 sure can hit.

[Coach]

Jesus. Let's swing at a pitch that is clear up around your head. Dumbass.

[milkman]

That looked like he kept his toe on.

Getz's foot on the slide put Ryan's foot on the bag in front if his.

Should have been an out.

[milkman]

Jesus. Let's swing at a pitch that is clear up around your head. Dumbass.

Needed to climb the ladder.

[Coach]

After being behind 0-2, full count. Good ab so far......

[acesn8s]

Damn, I could have bought some nosebleed seats and moved down right behind home plateBehind home plate is caged off.

[Toadkiller]

Nice!

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

Sweet

[Coach]

Getz's foot on the slide put Ryan's foot on the bag in front if his.

Should have been an out.

He was out. Got a break. Tie game.

[Sure-Oz]

Yes!

[milkman]

That should have been an error.

[Sure-Oz]

Kila has excellent patience

[kstater]

That should have been an error.

Denny made it sound like it hit the bag. No error if that's the case.

[Sure-Oz]

Kila wtf

[SnakeXJones]

I am glad we didnt take a chance on Bedard

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

Fuck

[milkman]

Denny made it sound like it hit the bag. No error if that's the case.

Not within 10 feet of the bag.

Hell, 15 feet.

[stonedstooge]

Damn

[Sure-Oz]

Kila and Aviles worthless sacks of shit

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

:facepalm:

[petegz28]

W T F?

[Coach]

Can we please go ahead and DFA Aviles already?

[Mizzou_8541]

FFS Aviles.

[kstater]

Not within 10 feet of the bag.

Hell, 15 feet.
He made it sound like it hit something. It's on in the background for me though.

[Dartgod]

We're gonna get one freaking run out of bases loaded, no outs. :banghead:

[alnorth]

All runs scored in this half inning should be unearned

[Al Bundy]

The give up part of the lineup. Kila, Aviles and Maier.

[Jethopper]

no

[Mizzou_8541]

This is Mith Meier's first at bat all season???

[alnorth]

He made it sound like it hit something. It's on in the background for me though.

It took a really bizarre hop. It was an easy call for the scorer, infield single.

[Gonzo]

Can we please go ahead and DFA Aviles already?

Please god, this. That guy is a perennial turd.

[Sure-Oz]

Mitch Maier you pussy get a hit

[Coach]

Fuck.

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

Bases loaded no outs, we get one fucking run


God I love being a Royals fan :facepalm:

[Gonzo]

WHAT. THE. FUCK.
Posted via Mobile Device

[petegz28]

bases loaded, 0 outs and we get 1 fucking run??? 1 fucking run????????

[Sure-Oz]

Wow fuck Kila, Aviles and Maier....we were extremely lucky to get 1 run out of all that

[Dartgod]

Way to take advantage. Fuck me.

[Al Bundy]

Maier is useless.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Bases loaded no outs, we get one ****ing run


God I love being a Royals fan :facepalm:That really is horrible. Aviles and Meier didn't appear to try.

[milkman]

He made it sound like it hit something. It's on in the background for me though.

The ball just simply ate him up.

He got caught between bounces on a hard shot, and wasn't able to adjust.

[Toadkiller]

That went south fast.

[Gonzo]

You know, how about all of you just swing for the fucking fences???
Oh wait, nevermind.

If Betemit and Gordon come back tomorrow cold and stop hitting, going to be pissed at Yost for resting them when their bats were hot. Don't quite understand it at this time of the year

[Coach]

He made it sound like it hit something. It's on in the background for me though.

It hit Figgins. Should be an error.

[milkman]

It took a really bizarre hop. It was an easy call for the scorer, infield single.

That hop was not bizarre.

[Coach]

If Betemit and Gordon come back tomorrow cold and stop hitting, going to be pissed at Yost for resting them when their bats were hot. Don't quite understand it at this time of the year

KC doesn't have a bye, so I guess he wants them to be fresh.

[acesn8s]

Bedard up to 28 pitches. At that pace, he's out in the 4th.

[Gonzo]

My 2 year old has a better swing than Aviles.

[Sure-Oz]

That hit by frenchy was an error im sorry

[Coach]

Sit your ass down.

[Gonzo]

LMAO

High five, dude.

[stonedstooge]

Come on Cool Hand Luke

[Coach]

Hoch u dumbass. Pitch!

[Mr. Laz]

KC doesn't have a bye, so I guess he wants them to be fresh.
is there anything more important than winning right now and continue to gain confidence? I don't think so ... hot players can get some rest later.

[PunkinDrublic]

C'mon Frank get it over the plate. You're a legend for christ's sake.

[Sure-Oz]

Luke fucking throw strikes, this mariner team is the royals

[acesn8s]

He is probably trying to get some bench players some time. Why not have Mitch in the wet outfield and protect Alex from getting hurt?

[stonedstooge]

Man I think you ride the wave when you can. If this group thinks they can win, it will be much easier for them. Mental side of the game is huge

[alnorth]

He is probably trying to get some bench players some time. Why not have Mitch in the wet outfield and protect Alex from getting hurt?

Yeah. Rainy night against the Mariners? OK fine, Aviles and Maier, your both in! Not a bad time to give people a rest.

[Coach]

is there anything more important than winning right now and continue to gain confidence? I don't think so ... hot players can get some rest later.

I understand, but the cleveland game is going to be important, so I don't mind giving some guys off today/tomorrow so everybody can be at all hands for the Cleveland game.

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

So let's see how they can fuck this up

[milkman]

Thumb bands?

[acesn8s]

Hoch is at 40 pitches. He will be lucky to get through the 5th.

[Coach]

Should also mention that Bedard is pitching, so he kind of not doing very well.

[Sure-Oz]

That was a hell of a swing from escobar

[Coach]

Hoch is at 40 pitches. He will be lucky to get through the 5th.

Bullpen is well rested.

[alnorth]

Top 3rd

Suzuki grounds out to pitcher
Figgins flies out to left
Bradley grounds out to shortstop

Bottom 3rd

[Saul Good]

Yeah. Rainy night against the Mariners? OK fine, Aviles and Maier, your both in! Not a bad time to give people a rest.

I'd rest them against Felix.

[AndChiefs]

Can't find the strike zone.

[acesn8s]

Wind is expected to pickup later in the game. It should change the game.

[Coach]

Call that blue!

[alnorth]

I love Denny's passive-aggressive criticism of the umpire tonight.

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

Run Billay

[acesn8s]

I like that guy!

[milkman]

Wow, Butler running in mud.

[kstater]

Cmon tubby

[Saul Good]

Has anyone been to the Negro Leagues Museum?

GONE!

[Sure-Oz]

FRENCHY!!!!!!!!

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

FRENCHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Toadkiller]

Frenchy crushed it!

[kstater]

FRENCHY

[acesn8s]

Yay!!!

[stonedstooge]

TOUCH EM ALL

[Mr. Laz]

Boom for froggy!!!

[Saul Good]

Talk about a no-doubter.

[Dartgod]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!

Frenchy with a BOMB!!

[acesn8s]

How long before Kila is sent back to the minors?

[Saul Good]

Did that thing land on the concourse behind the seats?

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

The negro league museum is great and all, but STFU and call the game

[Sure-Oz]

Koila looks bad

[petegz28]

Any chance they stop this before it's official?

[Sure-Oz]

The Negro league museum is great and all, but STFU and call the game

I bet the Yankees broadcast doesnt go off topic all the time

[Toadkiller]

Aviles with that friggen stance and the goofy ass bat wave drives me farking bonkers.

[Coach]

Wow, Butler running in mud.

He may be slow, but boy, that motherfucker can rake.

[acesn8s]

Did that thing land on the concourse behind the seats?Just in front of the door to the suite.

[Mizzou_8541]

How long before Kila is sent back to the minors?

Where does he play when he gets there? We already have C. Robinson and Hosmer in Omaha.

[Saul Good]

I'll repost myself because it may have been lost in the HR excitement:

Have any of you been to the museum?

[alnorth]

How long before Kila is sent back to the minors?

Very long. Kila is out of options.

[Saul Good]

Nice play by Figgins.

[Coach]

Aviles with that friggen stance and the goofy ass bat wave drives me farking bonkers.

Agreed. It needs to be redone.

[Kidd Lex]

Bob Kendrick will get caught laundrying money from the negro league museum.

- john rocker

[milkman]

The negro league museum is great and all, but STFU and call the game

In game interviews just suck ass.

There's all kinds of pregame an post game shows for this shit.

[Saul Good]

Where does he play when he gets there? We already have C. Robinson and Hosmer in Omaha.

It's pretty cool that it's easier to get playing time on our Major League roster than our Minor League roster yet our Major League team is in first place.

[acesn8s]

Where does he play when he gets there? We already have C. Robinson and Hosmer in Omaha.Wichita

[Sure-Oz]

In game interviews just suck ass.

There's all kinds of pregame an post game shows for this shit.

Peanut Butta and Crackas

[ZootedGranny]

Nice missed high five there, brah.

[alnorth]

Kila has no future here. He'll either do well enough to have trade value, or he'll be waived when Hosmer is ready.

I guess if no one grabs him off waivers then he can take over for Hosmer in Omaha, but I doubt he'll be in our system at the end of the year.

[Coach]

Pwned.

[stonedstooge]

Bob thanks a lot, now get the f out of here

[acesn8s]

Turned on a Negro League Museum infomercial and a Royals game broke out.

If the interview is only 40% complete when the rain comes, do they pick up where they left off, or do they have to start the interview over from the beginning?

[Saul Good]

This afternoon, Kietzman was bitching about the way Escobar throws the ball, complained that he "slings" it too much. I wanted to puke.

He may already be the best fielding SS the Royals have ever had.

[Archie F. Swin]

just tuned in....how's Hoch doing?

[Saul Good]

Just checked, and the Royals have never had a GG Shortstop.

And BOOM

[Mr. Arrowhead]

Treanor!!!!!

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

Boom


4-1


Stay on the DL Kendall

[kstater]

WOW

[Saul Good]

just tuned in....how's Hoch doing?

1 run through 4.

[Mr. Arrowhead]

screw you Kendall

[Mr. Laz]

just tuned in....how's Hoch doing?
started out shaky but it's become a workmanlike performance.

[Coach]

just tuned in....how's Hoch doing?

Inconsistent in the 1st, but so far, solid. Just seems like he really struggle at 1st innings, then is nails.

Gone!

[milkman]

This afternoon, Kietzman was bitching about the way Escobar throws the ball, complained that he "slings" it too much. I wanted to puke.

He may already be the best fielding SS the Royals have ever had.

Freddie Patek was an outstanding defensive SS.

[Coach]

Boom


4-1


Stay on the DL Kendall

Fuck that. Just DFA his worthless ass.

[petegz28]

This afternoon, Kietzman was bitching about the way Escobar throws the ball, complained that he "slings" it too much. I wanted to puke.

He may already be the best fielding SS the Royals have ever had.

More proof Kietzman knows as much about baseball as he does football

[Coach]

6 hrs given up in 12 2/3rds of innings? Brutal.

[Mizzou_8541]

Just checked, and the Royals have never had a GG Shortstop.

And BOOM

Damn, Saul. Keep posting. Every time you post, we hit a homerun.

[alnorth]

Those God-damned Indians are never going to lose. They are blasting the Orioles in the 9th

[Saul Good]

Freddie Patek was an outstanding defensive SS.

Here's an interesting article by Bill James that talks about Patek quite a bit. According to this, he was above average but not great. He's certainly the best of the bunch as far as the Royals are concerned.

http://www.billjamesonline.net/fieldingbible/relative-factors.asp

[tk13]

Freddie Patek was an outstanding defensive SS.

Greg Gagne was a really good defensive SS too.

[58-4ever]

Ok, i love this team.

[Coach]

Those God-damned Indians are never going to lose. They are blasting the Orioles in the 9th

Well, KC will have their chances to knock em down.

[Archie F. Swin]

next up to bat....number forty two

[Mr. Laz]

Getz = Bloomquist??

[alnorth]

OK, this is going to be a very weird strange statement. One of those strange unnatural "careful, your team should be in this situation, you have no business saying this as a fan of the Royals" statement, but here it is:

This game is ours. Its a rainy night, we've got the 3-run lead, Hoch is rolling and this Seattle pitcher sucks.

[acesn8s]

OK, this is going to be a very weird strange statement. One of those strange unnatural "careful, your team should be in this situation, you have no business saying this as a fan of the Royals" statement, but here it is:

Here comes the rain.

This game is ours. Its a rainy night, we've got the 3-run lead, Hoch is rolling and this Seattle pitcher sucks.Dude. You can't do that. We're cursed now.

[acesn8s]

Getz = Bloomquist??Very similar

[Archie F. Swin]

Today's active roster
http://royals.mlb.com/team/roster_active.jsp?c_id=kc

[acesn8s]

Here comes the rain.One more out and I'm good with that.

[Coach]

Nice 1-2-3 inning Hoch.

[Saul Good]

Getz = Bloomquist??

You give me a team with 25 Chris Getz's, and you'll have a good team.

[Coach]

OK, this is going to be a very weird strange statement. One of those strange unnatural "careful, your team should be in this situation, you have no business saying this as a fan of the Royals" statement, but here it is:

This game is ours. Its a rainy night, we've got the 3-run lead, Hoch is rolling and this Seattle pitcher sucks.

Oh fuck..... :facepalm:

[Archie F. Swin]

what a beautiful night for baseball. The wind chill is only 34.

[Saul Good]

Nice 1-2-3 inning Hoch.

When Hoch is rolling, he's very efficient. His problem is that he can give up a crooked number very quickly. To his credit, he's been very good at mitigating the damage this year other than 1 inning.

[acesn8s]

Bedard @ 83 pitches (will be gone soon)

Hoch @ 74 pitches

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

This may be the best outing we'll see from Hoch all year

[Saul Good]

Bedard @ 83 pitches (will be gone soon)

Hoch @ 74 pitches

103 pitch CG for Hoch? Make it happen.

[Saul Good]

This may be the best outing we'll see from Hoch all year

His game against the Reds two years ago may be the best game ever pitched by a Royal. He had a complete game shutout where he allowed 1 hit and threw 80 pitches.

[milkman]

Here's an interesting article by Bill James that talks about Patek quite a bit. According to this, he was above average but not great. He's certainly the best of the bunch as far as the Royals are concerned.

http://www.billjamesonline.net/fieldingbible/relative-factors.asp

I'm not reading all that BS.

Patek was a helluva fielder, and he and Cookie Rojas were as good a DP combination as any in the league.

[acesn8s]

103 pitch CG for Hoch? Make it happen.Could happen if its a shortened game.

[Mizzou_8541]

You give me a team with 25 Chris Getz's, and you'll have a good team.

Don't you mean 25 Ross Gload's?

[acesn8s]

Frenchy doing well in the 4 spot tonight

[BillSelfsTrophycase]

Frenchy's taking up the #domination sword

[Saul Good]

Don't you mean 25 Ross Gload's?

Gload, Bloomquist, Getz...same thing.

[Coach]

When Hoch is rolling, he's very efficient. His problem is that he can give up a crooked number very quickly. To his credit, he's been very good at mitigating the damage this year other than 1 inning.

I know. Its just sometimes frusterating to see him pitch like shit, especially times when he gets 0-2 counts, only to waste it.

[Saul Good]

I'm not reading all that BS.

Patek was a helluva fielder, and he and Cookie Rojas were as good a DP combination as any in the league.

I can only go off of what I hear on Patek. How does Escobar look in comparison? I know Patek was only 5'5 or so. What kind of range did he have?

[Saul Good]

That looked fair to me.

[Mr. Laz]

Ok, i love this team.They certainly are a scrappy bunch so far. which is a big step up from what they've been for the last ... ummm ... 20 yrs.

[Saul Good]

Good call.

Fielders should line up right on the line against Aviles.

[milkman]

I can only go off of what I hear on Patek. How does Escobar look in comparison? I know Patek was only 5'5 or so. What kind of range did he have?

Haven't seen enough of Escobar yet to draw a comparison.

Patek was 5'4".

[Coach]

In play! Run scored!

[Saul Good]

Fist pump time

[kstater]

So this offense, where'd it come from/

[Mizzou_8541]

Nice!

[Mr. Laz]

OK, this is going to be a very weird strange statement. One of those strange unnatural "careful, your team should be in this situation, you have no business saying this as a fan of the Royals" statement, but here it is:

This game is ours. Its a rainy night, we've got the 3-run lead, Hoch is rolling and this Seattle pitcher sucks.
boooooooooooooooooooooo


:spock:

[Saul Good]

Any truth to the rumor that I just started that Aviles has his jerseys custom made by Ed Hardy?

[alnorth]

If you are at the game, my hats off to you. This is a miserable night for baseball.

[Mizzou_8541]

Any truth to the rumor that I just started that Aviles has his jerseys custom made by Ed Hardy?

Impressive.

[Archie F. Swin]

is Maier playing 3rd bass tonight?

[alnorth]

boooooooooooooooooooooo


:spock:

4-run lead now and this Seattle pitcher sucks far worse than I had thought before.

I think I'm gonna get away with my bold cocky prediction. :evil:

[Coach]

Haven't seen enough of Escobar yet to draw a comparison.

Patek was 5'4".

I'll say this. He's a hell of an improvement over Neifi Perez, Angel bErrora, and Tony Pissa Jr.

[acesn8s]

Buh bye

[milkman]

is Maier playing 3rd bass tonight?

RF

[Archie F. Swin]

Any truth to the rumor that I just started that Aviles has his jerseys custom made by Ed Hardy?

If you are at the game, my hats off to you. This is a miserable night for baseball.

Especially if you're a Mariner.

[Coach]

is Maier playing 3rd bass tonight?

Yes. Pop Pop Goes the Weasel is on his iPod.

[Mr. Laz]

4-run lead now and this Seattle pitcher sucks far worse than I had thought before.

I think I'm gonna get away with my bold cocky prediction. :evil:
you taunt the baseball gods and you're likely to wake up tomorrow with a white ash enema.

:D

[Saul Good]

Hochevar could throw a 1-hitter, and Ichiro would still manage to have 3 hits against us.

[alnorth]

#42 is killing it tonight. LOL

conversely, #42 really sucks tonight for Seattle

[Saul Good]

Yes along with other 80s R&B at his second job as a karaoke DJ.

Maier is billay?

[Saul Good]

Is that really Billy Butler? No wonder he's so slow.

[Coach]

Sit your ass down.

[Sure-Oz]

I hope when this team is good we dont have these side interviews during the fucking game

[Saul Good]

Does he have a perfect game since the leadoff double?

[acesn8s]

Does he have a perfect game since the leadoff double?Gave up 2 BB

[alnorth]

Hoch doing what he can to try to give our bullpen even more rest.

You know what, if Hoch can go 7, then in the 8th I wanna see Adcock. Cold, wet, rainy, miserable, but with a 4-run lead, but also wet so hard to pitch... I wanna see more of Adcock. Lets see if this rule V kid is any good or not.

[keg in kc]

Wow, escobar just raking. *cough*

alnorth wants more adcock

[milkman]

Any chance Escobar is a base stealer?

[SnakeXJones]

I hope when this team is good we dont have these side interviews during the ****ing game We will just have to deal with another fake Guy Fieri interview

[Sure-Oz]

We will just have to deal with another fake Guy Fieri interview

LMAO

[Coach]

Stolen base.

[Saul Good]

Any chance Escobar is a base stealer?

None whatsoever.

[Coach]

Any chance Escobar is a base stealer?

Ask, and ye shall receive.
