I’d rather attend bible study lead by Prison Bitch than watch this team.

Everyone knows it takes two to three decades for things to come together

Hunter Dozier was drafted in 2013 and is only 31. HS guys in 2012 would just now be hitting their primes.

It does seem that many of the can't miss prospects don't quite pan out.

So... I'm wrong again... What IS the problem? I was a fan of keeping Perez and not Gordon, who was a disappointment (based on the hype that he was the next Brett).

There's a lot of teams that aren't good; maybe a big part of it is the structure of the salaries, lack of revenue sharing and salary cap. Very hard for small market teams to compete year in and year out.

You seem to be more tarded, than crazy. None of those 5 players you mentioned were even close to good when they left. Gordon wasn't even remotely close to a disappointment and was a huge reason we won a WS, KirkTard.

I was at the game on a sat and it was awful. They stink bad.

Did you at least ponder how much better the experience would have been if you were watching in a new downtown stadium?

‘33 is our year. Tasty views and a squad that can really dream about .500

Bubba Starling is 30 years old. Should be in his prime right now. That's 2011 draft. 2015 draft guys are 28/29 for the college players; 25 for the high school guys.

Royals have nothing to show for that era.

So they trade a young OF with some potential for a sack of shit AAAA pitcher. Nice job.

Woah, that's a headscratcher.

Looks like another starter for Omaha that has options. Pretty meh.

Meet the old boss, same as the new boss.
