Royals vs. a soft-tossing lefty. What could go wrong?

Maybe Gomes will make a difference.

I expect 2 home runs or it's a bust.

Goooooooooo royals!!!!

Fuck the Tigers. Go Royals!!!!!

[WhawhaWhat]

Over/Under on the first DFA Gomes comment?

Use your discretion.

I hope we just blow the doors off and score 12 plus.

Even if 12 runs to Toronto means they are having a terrible night on offense.

[Anyong Bluth]

Gordo gets the night off.

[suzzer99]

What % of the time is Toronto not up by at least 4 runs after 2-3 innings? Maybe 10%?

[Anyong Bluth]

What % of the time is Toronto not up by at least 4 runs after 2-3 innings? Maybe 10%?
Bauer is pitching and has been horrible lately. He was about to cry like a bitch if the media wouldn't stop asking him why he's sucked lately his last outing. No joke - about to lose his shit and have a breakdown.

He's a mental midget on another level.

[Deberg_1990]

Home plate ump looks like he just graduated high school

[Anyong Bluth]

If Ace has another outstanding outing I'll start really believing he's some sort of baseball succubus.

Drawing his power and ability by draining the talent from other really good pitchers. He was struggling before Cueto arrived because no one else in the rotation had the talent he could feed off of. Now, Johhny's here and he's looking a lot better , while Cueto has been pitching like he's been worn out...

Coincidence? I think not.

[ChiefsCountry]

Nasty pitch.

[SPchief]

Isn't Wolcott the guy that butchered like 5 calls a few weeks ago?

[lewdog]

Well that looked like it hurt. Tough mother, Kinsler.

[lewdog]

We will get one later for that. Probably Cain.

[ChiefsCountry]

Cabrera is just a stud.

[Mr. Laz]

taking it dry

[Anyong Bluth]

Just looks like an effortless natural

[lewdog]

Cabrera is just a stud.

Best pure hitter of my generation.

[petegz28]

that looked like strike 3

[tk13]

Ventura's curve looks like a wiffle ball tonight.

[siberian khatru]

Attaboy, Ace

[jimidollar]

Time for Escobar's patented one pitch out.

[tk13]

We will get one later for that. Probably Cain.

I'd imagine so. Drilled a guy in the upper back on the first pitch a night after he hit a HR off us... one of our guys will probably eat one. There's basically three games left in this series though, so it might not be right away.

[lewdog]

ZORILLA!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SPchief]

BOOM

[KCFalcon59]

Zobrist is a gem. Got to keep him around.

If you want an idea of how long Wolf has been around, when he was drafted by the Phillies, Hosmer was 7 years old.

Is that you right now?

[cosmo20002]

Dayton Moore is a genius!

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

WOW !

[jimidollar]

Welcome, Gomes!

[Al Bundy]

Nice fucking hitting.

[penbrook]

Gomes for RF

[tk13]

Mash ball. Gomes hammer lefty.

[Anyong Bluth]

All hail, Dayton

[lewdog]

And there it is. EVEN now.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Hey, look! Matt Stairs!

[Rasputin]

Don't miss Rios he can keep his chicken pox.



Go Gomes

[jimidollar]

Boooo!!!

[Al Bundy]

Is that you right now?

If it is.. I am fucking jealous. BTW Why in the fuck was their warnings?

[lewdog]

Salvy pissed about the warning I think? Not sure?

[tk13]

There it is.

Gomes little bat flip probably didn't help.

[SnakeXJones]

Damn Gomes swing is ugly it looks almost half ass

[lewdog]

If it is.. I am fucking jealous. BTW Why in the fuck was their warnings?

Warning because we are the Royals I guess. Reputation?

[tk13]

Salvy pissed about the warning I think? Not sure?

He is, but we put a 100 mph fastball in Kinsler's back after he hit a HR last night. It's fair.

[Al Bundy]

There you fucking go!!!

[jimidollar]

I like this.

[cosmo20002]

He is, but we put a 100 mph fastball in Kinsler's back after he hit a HR last night. It's fair.

And if they want to load the bases with no outs, I can live with that.

[penbrook]

Cuthbert is gonna be a player in a few years. I hope he's learning to play 2B

[Anyong Bluth]

Gomes moves a lot faster than I thought on the basepath - especially considering he has shit range in LF

[lewdog]

He is, but we put a 100 mph fastball in Kinsler's back after he hit a HR last night. It's fair.

Oh no doubt. Not arguing that. Warning seemed a bit uncalled for but whatever.

[alnorth]

quick reminder that a warning doesn't mean the next HBP is an ejection, especially if its a bad situation to put a guy on.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Why did Orlando look at a fastball right down the middle for strike one?

[KCUnited]

Wolf is lulling me to sleep.

[Deberg_1990]

Wolf Man sucks

[petegz28]

nice inning....would have liked 1 more run but not gonna bitch about 3

[cosmo20002]

nice inning....would have liked 1 more run but not gonna bitch about 3

Sorts glad they stop I need yo to be focused!

[petegz28]

Twins up 1-0

[jimidollar]

Ventura racking up Ks!

[Pitt Gorilla]

Sick.

[bsroyals54]

Lets send Ventura to AAA

[Al Bundy]

Ventura is cookin...

[penbrook]

This had nothing to do with AAA! It had everything to do with Cueto coming over

[KCUnited]

Lol, the owner of Kelly's in the Buck O'neil seat...ok.

[lewdog]

Get Wolf out!

[petegz28]

BOOM!

[bsroyals54]

Every home run he hits is a bomb.

[big nasty kcnut]

Yo looking good! Keep it going!

[jimidollar]

Caino homo!!

[SPchief]

Crushed

[bsroyals54]

Teh Hos, we are lighting this fuck up

We can't hit soft tossing lefties...

That "I'll trade my sister to meet Salvy" sign was hilariously uncomfortable. Ryan wanted no part of that, and just let Hud flounder.

[jimidollar]

Wolf is pitching like Cueto tonight.

[cosmo20002]

This had nothing to do with AAA! It had everything to do with Cueto coming over

:rolleyes:

[KCCHIEFS27]

Things are looking good so far, I'd say.

[C3HIEF3S]

If there was ever a damn good time for Ventura to figure it out...

[SPchief]

Toss his ass

[SPchief]

Fucking run him. IDC if it's Cabrera

[Al Bundy]

Hit the showers.

[C3HIEF3S]

Sit the fuck down Miggy. Jesus.

[lewdog]

I missed it. SHIT!

[TLO]

Adios Cabrera.

[alnorth]

Crew Chief had enough.

The young inexperienced umpire on his team doesn't want to toss the reigning MVP, "OK fine I've been around long enough, I'll run your ass."

[C3HIEF3S]

There goes the one guy you don't let beat you in that lineup.

[lewdog]

Nice arm!

[tk13]

Pitch was a little high but it wasn't like it was a mile out of the zone either.

[petegz28]

Cutty all over it..

[ROYC75]

A Miggy go Bye Bye!

[SAUTO]

Cabrera grabbed his dick while walking off lol

[TLO]

Looking filthy.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Cuthbert with the gun.

[alnorth]

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Wolf just goes "F it, we lost anyway" and just hits one of our guys.

[big nasty kcnut]

Well ............. Bye miggie!

[ChiTown]

My apologies in advance for the question, as I have been swallowed up in work over the last 3-4 days.......where is Moose, and what's the deal with Kelvin? TIA

[ROYC75]

A Miggy go Bye Bye!

Guess I could have said, Amiggo Bye Bye.

[Deberg_1990]

Crew Chief had enough.

The young inexperienced umpire on his team doesn't want to toss the reigning MVP, "OK fine I've been around long enough, I'll run your ass."

Heh, that was the impression I got too.


Home plate ump tonight looks very green.

[SPchief]

My apologies in advance for the question, as I have been swallowed up in work over the last 3-4 days.......where is Moose, and what's the deal with Kelvin? TIA

Moose out with a sore hammy. Kelvin and Rios out with Chicken Pox

[lewdog]

My apologies in advance for the question, as I have been swallowed up in work over the last 3-4 days.......where is Moose, and what's the deal with Kelvin? TIA

One has a tight hammy the other chicken pox.

[big nasty kcnut]

Also royals looking good!

[alnorth]

Kelvin and Rios out with Chicken Pox

This is not a joke.

[tk13]

My apologies in advance for the question, as I have been swallowed up in work over the last 3-4 days.......where is Moose, and what's the deal with Kelvin? TIA

Moose has a sore hamstring. If this were the playoffs he'd be playing.

Kelvin and Rios have chickenpox. For real. They're both out for two weeks, at least. Maybe longer.

[ChiTown]

Moose out with a sore hammy. Kelvin and Rios out with Chicken Pox

Thanks. Is it a bad pull or just some soreness/tightness? Chicken Pox? WTF?

[ROYC75]

Paulo is making his case for the post season over Rios.

[tk13]

I know I'm an Orlando homer, but he just has more pop than Rios. Probably not as consistent as a hitter but he can drive the ball.

[tk13]

Always a good sign when Guido Knudson is up in the bullpen.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Paulo is a horse. Dude should try out for the Chiefs.

[jimidollar]

Escobarf needs some PEDs.

[KChiefs1]

I know I'm an Orlando homer, but he just has more pop than Rios. Probably not as consistent as a hitter but he can drive the ball.


Much more power in his bat.

The best was you could tell Hud kinda picked up on it being best to move onto a new subject, but Rex just digs deeper with another 2 or 3 comments after some pretty long pauses and Ryan refusing each time on chiming in.

They may hit a lot of homers, but there's a reason why Canada is known for cheap drugs!

[SPchief]

Here's the weird thing, Ventura isn't going to be the story tomorrow. And he's probably going to set a career high in K's tonight.

[jimidollar]

Even Escobar got a hit. Wow!

[Chiefspants]

If they can hold on, this win could save the season.

[siberian khatru]

Porn star Buck Farmer now pitching

[Anyong Bluth]

I hope we just blow the doors off and score 12 plus.

Even if 12 runs to Toronto means they are having a terrible night on offense.
Called it.

Just didn't think we'd do it before the end of the 5th.

[lewdog]

Salvy and the boys even cut their hair. Do I see railroad tracks on the side!!!???

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

The new guys have provided a spark

[SPchief]

Wow, how's that gotta feel for Detroit. We're pulling starters in the 5th.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Salvy is so excited for fresh gatorade victims.

Infante looks like he changed his stance a little

[ReynardMuldrake]

Wow, how's that gotta feel for Detroit. We're pulling starters in the 5th.

I hope it's humiliating.

[GloryDayz]

I'm happy with how things are progressing.

[stonedstooge]

Just piss pounding them. Makes me giddy

[mr. tegu]

I wish I was at the game so I could be there when they start pulling the second stringers and putting fans in.

[penbrook]

Will Gomes pitch tonight?

[Anyong Bluth]

Royals need to stop. PBs gonna be pissed having to watch so much DVR'd scoring.

/time waster

[SPchief]

OOOHHHHH, we may get to see Gore bat tonight

[siberian khatru]

I wish I was at the game so I could be there when they start pulling the second stringers and putting fans in.

LMAO

[siberian khatru]

Hosmer, you suck

[KChiefs1]

He is legit fast once he's going. WOW.


I'd like to see a race around the bases with him & Dyson.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Keep the foot on the accelerator and burn through their pen.

[SPchief]

It's weird, pete's not in here. Literally nothing to bitch about I guess

[jimidollar]

Hosmer with a mercy DP.

Gonna get a Gore PA tonite!

LMAO Butera at 1st

Our 1-2-3 hitters tonight are Colon, Infante, and Dyson. #Yosted

LOL. Ned is trying to Yost this as hard as he can

[siberian khatru]

No Pena at C yet?

[KChiefs1]

Gonna get a Gore PA tonite!


Nice

[Anyong Bluth]

I'd like to see a race around the bases with him & Dyson.
I think in terms of quickness it goes:

Gore
Dyson
Orlando

As for speed? Orlando has got a big stride- it'd be interesting to see at those longer distances as well as who can turn the corners more efficiently.

[siberian khatru]

Uh oh, here comes the comeback. #Yosted

[KChiefs1]

I think in terms of quickness it goes:

Gore
Dyson
Orlando

As for speed? Orlando has got a big stride- it'd be interesting to see at those longer distances as well as who can turn the corners more efficiently.


Would be fun to watch.

[SPchief]

No Pena at C yet?

Salvy is slacking and doesn't have a hit

[SPchief]

PB is gonna look at the box score and think the StormChasers are playing

[GloryDayz]

Fucking run him. IDC if it's Cabrera

OK, I missed it, what happened?

[tk13]

I think in terms of quickness it goes:

Gore
Dyson
Orlando

As for speed? Orlando has got a big stride- it'd be interesting to see at those longer distances as well as who can turn the corners more efficiently.

Remember Orlando was a Junior Olympic sprinter. He ran the 200 in 21 seconds. He'd give those other guys a run in a pure footrace.

[ChiefsCountry]

PB is gonna look at the box score and think the StormChasers are playing

LMAO LMAO LMAO

[lewdog]

Ah Rex. Big man with a big heart. He looks good for 55. I think he's still juicing.

[SPchief]

Gore AB!

[lewdog]

I will say Gore is a fan favorite at Spring Training too. He'll sign tons of autographs before games. Very friendly.

[tk13]

Bet he bunts here.

[ChiTown]

Ah Rex. Big man with a big heart. He looks good for 55. I think he's still juicing.

He's a good Man. I loved the exchange with Ryan giving him a little shit for choking up :evil:

[tk13]

Although I guess that would be against the rules in an 11 run game. Nevermind. Hit a homer Gore.

[KChiefs1]

Ah Rex. Big man with a big heart. He looks good for 55. I think he's still juicing.

After he got the craziness out of his system his first year and a half, he's been a pretty decent fellow

[siberian khatru]

Great, now put Pena behind the plate.

[tk13]

Don't know if they want to use Almonte on back to back days, but today would be a great time to get him and Alexander some work.

[mr. tegu]

After he got the craziness out of his system his first year and a half, he's been a pretty decent fellow

He has always been good and I defended him from the beginning, but it's just that people felt he was too positive without good reason. I think a lot of people felt he was making too many excuses and trying too hard to talk good about the team.

[ChiefsCountry]

Well it looks like I might do some tv flipping how this game is going and we got Omaha in. Cards/Nationals got a good one going on.

[petegz28]

GMDM is a mad fucking scientist. He traded for Cueto and once he got him here he did a soul swap between Ventura and Cueto.

Ventura has been Cueto sick the last few games....
Cueto has been very Ventura-esque the last few games...

[lewdog]

http://www.kansascity.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/sam-mellinger/article32702790.html
