Looks like Comcast mercy killed my MLB Extra Innings feed.

Blaine Boyer's a helluva bus driver in a pinch, but as a relief pitcher he always winds up in the ditch.

You should thank Comcast, they're doing you a favor.

It's now 11-3 Toronto lead . . . .

Yep, finally a well timed service failure.

Apparently only 2 of those Boyer runs were earned, so his ERA only goes to 25.20.

He's driving the bus alright . . . . .





















straight off the cliff.

I hope Boyer will be gone when Karns is activated.

For that last game, our 5-9 lineup's individual batting averages looked like this:

5: .231
6: .190
7: .118
8: .173
9: .188

In the American League, this is in-****ing excusable. Not to mention this is your lineup WITHOUT everyday starter and arguably the worst hitting outfielder in baseball Alex Gordon. The 5 through 9 batters in our lineup are basically providing NL pitcher's bats for each at-bat. Not only are you not going to win games with this type of shit, you're not going to score runs period. Even if you replace Almonte with Soler, you're still getting steaming dog shit.

If you're going to give us remedial AA level baseball, at least do it like the 2005 Royals did it. Go all in and suck. Trade everything except Salvy and let him be our Mike Sweeney so you can at least sell a few Hyvee seats. I'm looking forward to ESPN highlights at Kauffman Stadium where somebody hits a 440 foot homerun off of one of our pitiful relievers and it cuts to an opposing fan chasing the ball from 7 rows up due to no other seats being occupied.

This is going to be a loooooooooong rebuild. Buckle your seatbelts, Royals fans!

TomBarndtsTwin 04-17-2018 08:54 PM

We made it through the 90’s and 2000’s with some of the worst baseball eyes have ever seen. 2014-2015 was the reward. I’m good for another 5-7.

Tank, get top 3 picks the next 3 years. Between that and our talent in the low minors now, we’ll be ready to roll come 2022.


Been a fan since 82 and a die hard since 87, so this will be a piece of cake.

I fully expect this team to contend ...































with the club's 19 game losing streak record.

The Royals added Scott Barlow to the roster for the double header ( 26th man ). They must now remove someone from the active roster. I hope they keep Barlow and get rid of Boyer. If they get rid of Boyer that would also open up a spot on the 40 man roster.

Here's an article from when the Royals signed Barlow;

I'd rather have Kurt Barlow than most of these guys.

I've never heard of half these guys, and the ones I do know are way past their prime.

Most of these guys never had a prime.

This guy here is dead.
