**Royals @ Indians 4/27**

[petegz28]

Haven't even recorded 2 outs and we have given up 4 runs

[petegz28]

Francis you suck!

[Blankey]

eh, why not make it 5 runs, who cares at this point

[petegz28]

JFC, Francis....7 hiots and 5 runs and we still only have 2 outs

[KCUnited]

Francis with a 50 pitch inning.

[Al Bundy]

Butler hit a lazy fly ball again... He is a slap hitter he should stick to slapping the ball around, no power.

[jbwm89]

Paging Montgomery, duffy, moose and hosmer, we really are as bad as we thought we would be.

[DeezNutz]

Yep. Worst rotation in baseball showing itself in all its glory tonight.

[KCUnited]

In before Survivor starts.

[Three7s]

Why is this thread even here? I bet the game was over before it was even made.

[stonedstooge]

Not a very good way to start the game, spotting them 5 runs.

[stonedstooge]

Pardon, 4 runs down

[stonedstooge]

Pardon, 3 runs down

[DeezNutz]

I'm sure that Gordon is playing 1B only because Kila is "getting the day off." No way that Yost is sending a pretty strong signal by fucking moving the guy who was playing the best LF in the AL (and was sent to AAA to learn the position).

[KCUnited]

Francour is like Farnsworth with a bat, nobody on down by 5 he's nails. Bases loaded, 1 out, game within reach, for sure K.

[DeezNutz]

Betemit isn't athletic enough to play 3B. Clearly.

[petegz28]

Francis sucks

[Three7s]

Holy shit, Francis got an out? A miracle......

[stonedstooge]

Betemit isn't athletic enough to play 3B. Clearly.

And doesn't have good enough hands

[DeezNutz]

Dude has zero room for error when his fastball ranges 86-88.

[DeezNutz]

And doesn't have good enough hands

Clearly.

[stonedstooge]

Evilas out of friggin position

[stonedstooge]

Come on Alex, lets do 20

[stonedstooge]

Betemit doesn't recover quickly either

[stonedstooge]

Betemit doesn't run the bases well either

[petegz28]

well, the royals are back

[Deberg_1990]

well, the royals are back

heh. yep....like clockwork...notice the game thread activity has declined.

[Imon Yourside]

How long til football season?

[ChiTown]

well, the royals are back

It's the starting pitching. You can't have 5 guys that are ALL back of the rotation types, specifically 4's and (primarily) 5's and expect to remain competitive. This has got to be one of THE worst if not THE worst rotation in all of MLB. It is what it is. I realize and respect the fact that we are nurturing something special in Omaha and NWA. So, I'll remain patient while that develops. In the mean time, we may want to get Aaron Crow a spot start now and then to get him a little more experience. Just a thought.........

Well, losing 6 and the Draft its no surprise really.
