Hey, i just looked and see the Royals have the worst record in baseball as well as the worst point differential by 40 runs.

I'm might just be a dumb ole retired pig farmer but I'd say it's time to clean house with the management. From Yost down at least.

Bobby Witt, Jr. is the top guy right now and does have huge potential.



That’s a shame but if Witt Jr is the top guy by a wide margin then it’s imperative that the Royals get the top pick.

You might wanna re-read what you quoted. You're agreeing with him while typing, "Um, no"

You’re right. I mis-read his post.

My apologies to Best22.

Meanwhile, Herrera has a 4.05 ERA and a 5.35 FIP with the Nats...

Something worth keeping an eye on, for sure.

It really hasn't been a great year for a lot of former Royals. Wade Davis hasn't been good. I know Dodger fans haven't been thrilled with Scott Alexander. Hosmer is doing alright but he's not really putting up All-Star numbers fitting to his contract. He's on pace to hit about 16 HR with 60-70 RBI. Jason Vargas has been absolutely horrible.

The only guys doing well are Cain, who is currently hurt... and Soria, who is having a real nice season for the White Sox.

Not a Royal last year but Holland went to shit to.

20 teams
6 months
118 years
= 14,160 "team months"



Yep. We just had the 11th worst of 14,160.

Damn, you mean we didn't suck enough to make the Top10? :rolleyes:

Its almost like those former Royals players/team were better collectively together than they are are as singular players. a great TEAM

I'm watching Matt Strahm ball out against the Dbacks though

I didn't disagree on going for it but the fact we traded that guy for piñata Cahill and awful Maurer will never be cool.

They're absolutely killing the Royals. It would be so much BETTER to be a lifelong fan of the Cleveland Indians. :rolleyes:

So how many games have you gone to lately? How many do you even watch?

If you love being a Royals fan so much, you'll watch their games

ERA now up to 4.70 after today's game.

Perhaps it's getting adjusted to the change in scenery.. but he was trending this way toward the end.

As much as I'd hate moose to be a Yankee, this is the team I'd want to trade with since they have good talent. Moose would rake at that park.

@jonmorosi: Sources: #Yankees have considered Mike Moustakas as a trade candidate — to play first base. Story here: https://www.mlb.com/news/yankees-int...1b/c-284453870 @MLBNetwork @MLB

That is the perfect type of team to trade with re: Moustakas. They have an embarrassment of riches in their farm system. Even though you won’t get a top, top guy, they have been stockpiling talent and if you dig into the lower levels could come away with a real gem.
