suck it that HAWK!!!!!!!!


HOCK HOCK, HOCK HOCK!!!!!!!

Depends on what you mean by "production." They expect production from a leadoff hitter, no? Well Gordon has certainly met if not exceeded expectations in that role these past two seasons.

Royals now have 4 highest hits games vs Chris Sale in MLB this year. 10, 9 tonight, 8 and tied for 4th with 7

Yost said they wanted Gordon to be relied on as a 3-4-5 hitter from this point forward. He always tanks when he's put anywhere but leadoff, or in 7 or 8 hole. What is he now since being moved? Zip for nine with no walks?

Alright Nightfyre, this could be the inning they leave Mendoza in too long. Lets hope you are wrong. :D

Had the game going on the computer, sitting at the table while we ate dinner. Girlfriend looked at the game and said, "I don't like the White Sox." Even she knows and shes doesn't follow baseball. Hope the bullpen comes through here.

I love his enthusiasm almost as much as his play. Dude loves the game.

FWIW: I'd put Gordon back in leadoff tomorrow night and leave him there the rest of the year. **** with his slot next year during spring training.

if our lineup projected for 2014 all works out. it shouldnt matter who hits where except the 3 hole imo

Nevermind. Herrera in for the 8th. Although with only 85 pitches I would like to see him go back out there.

I'm telling you, Alex would be IDEAL in the 2 hole. But we really don't have anyone ideal for the one hole, so why not -

1- Gordon, LF
2 - Cain, CF
3 - Moose, 3B
4 - Butler, DH
5 - Hosmer, 1B
6 - Perez, C
7 - Myers, RF
8 - Getz/Gio platoon
9 - Escobar, SS

If Nightfyre ran the world....

Herrera is wild tonight, better get somebody else up quick.

Ned Yost clearly reads CP. (Refer to post above)

That is a really good lineup. I can't remember the last time we had good hitters in basically every spot of the lineup. That is of course assuming Hosmer gets it together for next season.

Earth to Ned.....Earth to Ned....wake up, Ned....
