If Gordon will take 5/80 or 6/90, you do it in a heartbeat.

They could still give priority to those who have purchased them several years in a row, or set a limit, but I guess it's easier that way and creates less fake outrage.

Rany's takes on the Royals have been dead wrong over the last 3 years.

Cueto had the meltdown in Toronto. He also had 2 amazing starts and one mediocre start.

He won two games for us by being dominant, lost one game for us by being terrible, and was kind of neutral in one game.

We almost certainly don't win the Series without him.
