Anybody have a working stream link?

Those computer rankings are the same ones that kcconnection uses trying to tell me this years KU team was better than the one with Wiggins and Embiid
I have no doubt these computer projections are kinda useful but they're starting to remind me of PFF The Royals might be the best team in baseball. I'd probably side with the Nationals but, yeah |

Why in the hell would a FA pitcher not want to be a Royal?
At any given time, he could have 7 gold glove caliber fielders surrounding him (when Dyson is in RF). |

Hopefully Infante ends this inning.
|
29 yr old rookie - I was sure that was going to be a K.
We're blessed! |
Great at bat.
|
OMAAAAAHHHH!!!
|
Omar off the schneid
|
That guy rules!
|
move the runners great job
|
WTF was that running, Esky?
He looked like Bowe going over the middle. |

****!

Gotta love a first pitch foul out.
|
That's the Moose we all know.
|
Bummer.

Esky has made a couple of base running mistakes. |
Hindsight and all, but sacrificing in that situation is one of the worst plays in baseball...especially with a hitter as hot as Escobar.

Volquez on pace for a 71 pitch CGSO...

Hootie appears to be lost. He's posting in the repository. Anyone want to grab him?
|
Nice strike out by Volquez.
|
For those watching on TV, how does he look? I know he's had at least 3-4 nice defensive plays behind him. Is he just getting lucky, or is he in command?
|
His change up is working.

Quote:
Really has muscled up on a few of the fastballs for the strikeout. There's a weird camera angle, which makes it a little tougher than normal to get a perspective on how good the control is. |
WARN HIS ASS
|
Why can't we hit Danks?
|
Quote:
Do people understand how much pressure the Royals defense takes off of the pitching staff? Guys like Volquez will understand they can make mistakes that Cain and Gordon (etc) will turn into outs that no one else can. Our ballpark + defense is any pitcher's dream. |

To follow up on Volquez -
I think his two seamer is REALLY moving today. He's surprised several guys with a called strike and also thrown several pitches that caught the outside corner but looked like a ball from the camera angle/seeing the ball hit the mitt. I believe the big adjustment Ray Searage made with him last year was getting him to throw his two-seamer more. |
That was a pretty pitch.
|
Hard to gripe about anything Royals baseball but the sac bunts are going to piss me off all year long.
|
Quote:
3.50 ERA, 1.25 ERA or less or something like that. |
Volquez doing everything we need from him.
|
46 pitches thru 5 innings.
|
My boy Orlando with a triple.
|
Paulo!!
|
Why did he run so hard out of the batters box? He might pull a muscle, or worse get thrown behind at first!!
|
So... um... Paulo Orlando can run a little bit, huh?
No wonder his defensive rep is so tremendous. Wow. |
F
|
To quote Jerry Reed, when your hot your hot.
|
|
That's gonna sting
|
Runner on 3rd, no outs, stranded. That hurts:banghead:
|
Infante has 10 at bats on the season. 8 of them with runners on base. Half of them with RISP. 4 of them with a runner on third. He hasn't driven in a run yet.
|
Volquez has always had the stuff and the talent ... put a ballpark and some defense behind him? He could end up being a steal. Dude started an all-star game 1 year (I think)
|
60 pitches through 6. The kid is fantastic.

60 pitches through 6

He sucks. |

Welp. I'd rather not see Volquez face Abreu again but you have to roll the dice. Hopefully he doesn't give him much to hit.
|
Do not waste this opportunity.
|
God damn Cain is a ****ing beast. MVP!
|
Big inning here boys
|
How close was that to going out?
|
Quote:
|
Kendrys!
|
Yeah, baby
|
Just saw the Eaton catch. Holy.shit! Props to him.
|
2-0 lead with Volquez pitching lights out and HDH looming.
|
Keep it going
