This is total bullshit... They don't care at all if they win or lose. At this rate, we will never have a good baseball team... When you got a lot of the future already up sucking balls like Teahen, Pena jr, gordon, shealy, dejesus, buck and so forth... We're screwed for another 20 years... **** YOU DAVID GLASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's the difference in the organizations top to bottom......

When the Indians traded their players they got....Grady Sizemore, Cliff Lee, Travis Hafner, Josh Barfield, Andy Marte and Kelly Shoppach...

The Twins trades resulted in Joe Nathan, Francisco Liriano and so forth...

We trade and get Angel Berroa, Mark Teahen and John Buck.......we didn't get enough value in any of our trades. No matter what anyone thinks of Teahen we got robbed in that Beltran deal, robbed beyond belief.

Dayton Moore deserves better. Ewing Kauffman deserves better. The people of Kansas City deserve better.

Glass needs to leave.

No one expected this team to win the pennant, however, we all hoped they would start a lot better than they have. Don't give up hope just yet. The bright side is starting pitching is looking pretty good (hopefully Meche's injury is nothing serious), even Perez today was fine. We are very young; unlike the chiefs, we can actually look at the future with current players and hope to improve. Sweeney is in the last year of his contract, if he comes back (unlikely imo), it will be a greatly reduced price. I have heard our beginning two months of the schedule reffered to as the toughest in the league. Teahan will get better, moving positions could affect him at the plate as well, he will get past this. Gordon will improve, and shealy can't possibly bat any worse; if he does bench his ass and put in gload. I'm not convinced he's Moore's long term first baseman any way.

It's the 14th of April. The season isn't even 2 weeks old. There are 150 games left. 150.

If you're getting this upset this early, you might want to just tune them out. Because you'll have an ulcer by June. If you make it that far.

Baseball is a weird game. Slumps spread like virus' through a team. So do streaks. It's sort of like weather in the midwest. What you see today isn't necessarily what you'll see tomorrow. They could go out tomorrow afternoon, blink on like a lightbulb and give Grienke another win. Then they go on to take 4 of 6 from the Tigers and Twins this week, and suddenly we're looking at an 8-11 team on an upswing instead of a 3-9 one that looks like turd on a stick. Or they could win tomorrow, go on to lose 5 in a row, and maintain their weird early streak (win 1, lose 2, win 1, lose 3, win 1, lose 4 (so far)), and then you can complain about how David Glass sucks because we spent too much on Mike S. Weeney and Octavio Dotel and Gil Meche, or else because he doesn't spend 10 billion on everyone else.

Criticize Glass all you want. He's hired the right GM (according to everyone), he's increased the payroll significantly, and he's shown a new willingness to shell out big contracts. And now it's up to the players.

Beyond that, it's a rebuilding year, where we'll be playing a ton of young guys. Everybody knew it coming in.

Or at least I thought they did.

Dotel being injured ****ed us. Oh well, Im in SF, Im gonna go out bitches.

Buddy Bell sucks. Keeping him is the biggest mistake Dayton has made since he was hired

They should have at least been at .500 at this point...then at least people would have some hope. This looks like same old same old to me.

3-9 is no way to start a season. Thats the equavilent of the Chiefs starting out 1-4

I agree......im seriously surprised Dayton kept him??? Oh well, he wont last long at this rate...

This is a solid take, and I agree with you. But what ticks me off is that this team didn't start the year with a sense of urgency. Let me clarify: Bell spent a lot of time yacking about the importance of getting off to a good start. Third game of the year, though, with a chance to take the opening series, and starters are on the bench for "regular rest."

This kind of stuff is a joke. Yes, Sweeney will get hurt if someone walks past him too closely and Grudz. is coming off a knee injury, but don't tell me these guys can't play 3 freaking games. Get 20-30 games in to the year playing decent ball, then start getting guys some rest.

Not playing well at all right now and we've had our good pitching and no O. It will come around, i expect better baseball out of this bunch, this team is still on the right track.

That's pretty much the way it is. They're only one game better in the win-loss column right now, but the fact is they've only allowed 57 runs in a dozen games. That comes out to less than 5 runs allowed per 9 innings. To put that in some perspective, last year at this time, the Royals had allowed 89 runs, nearly 7.5 per nine innings.

In '06, in the first dozen games, they allowed 9 or more runs 6 times, held teams to 3 just twice, never giving up less than 3 in any game. This year they've allowed 9 just once, and have yet to give up double-digit runs in any game. They've held teams to 3 or fewer runs 5 times, holding teams below 3 runs 3 times (1, 1 and 2).

If that kind of pitching continues, this will be a vastly improved team by year's end, in terms of wins and losses. The bats will not stay cold forever.

And there's guys in the minors who'll be coming up either later in the year or in 2008, both bats and arms...

Whoever heard of a 11 million dollar pinch hitter that strikes out with men on base and is batting .172.

Enough is enough with this assclown.
