The real gem in there is the DH

OKchiefs 06-22-2018 03:07 PM

I wonder who is the last hitter we've had in the minors that really dominated like Moose and Hosmer did? All of the current guys who are supposed to be the next wave have pretty crappy averages. I know you can't read too much into stats, but it'd be nice to see a real prospect (not an AAAA type) hitting .300+ and for some power. Do you leave the A guys at the same level another year and hope they dominate, or do you move them to AA where they're still young for the level?

Ned has officially entered the "**** it, I'm having fun" part of the season.

Speaking of AAAA players.... someone means to tell me that there's nobody in the farm that can a DH over Paulo?

They are doing their job. I admit that I want to watch Esky play center field tonight.

WTF is Esky doing playing CF?

I can see where you’re coming from. It was a conscious decision to help me cope with our monumental fall from grace. We all deal with grief differently. It may be pathetic to you, but to me it’s been refreshing and will recharge me for the rebuild. If we were rolling out our future players and they lost 120 games, I’d watch every game. I’ve enjoyed the Florida Gators in the College World Series for this very reason.

Ned said to increase Esky's value is to turn him into an utility player. Said all of his free agent offers was for that.

Moustakas and Hosmer were both pretty terrible at Wilmington their first time around,
To the point of Moustakas being nicknamed “Mistake-us” by a decent portion of the Royals internet fanbase.

The types of prospects you’re talking about are guys who typically rate as top 25-50 talents. KC just doesn’t have anybody like that right. Lee is closest, and what he is doing at Wilmington IS impressive for that league, especially at his age.

Can Paulo be any worse?

Get rid of him already. Three times tonight I’ve watched him shit all over himself with someone on base.

ChiefsCountry 06-22-2018 09:10 PM

Herrera having a game tonight. Took away a homer, now a triple to give the Royals the lead.

petegz28 06-22-2018 09:13 PM

As good as Herrera has played tonight is how bad Moose has looked. That last AB was ****ing terrible

ChiefsCountry 06-22-2018 09:19 PM

Streak is over.

I enjoyed the Rosell Herrera Show and would like to see more episodes.
