Royals sign 4th rounder Tim Melville

[eazyb81]

Royals spent over $11 mill on the draft, which appears to be the highest amount spent by any team this year.



Glass is so cheap.

You loves you some Glass. Some strange sports equivalent to battered-woman syndrome.

The team with the third worst record spent the most? Unbelievable. Who would think that this would stand to reason? The only people surprised are those in TB and Pitts.

Royals fans rejoice! The team is finally doing things like...get ready for this...a REAL organization! Many thanks to David Glass, KC's most wonderful philanthropist! We should all forget about the period from '93-'05. These years didn't really happen. Really. Trust me. Glass is great.

No dude, Glass is obviously a cheap ass, right? You were right all along, Glass doesn't spend money. You sure do know baseball.

He's spending money now. I love it. Keep it up. Your logic has been brilliant throughout this thread. What's that about never failing to get a draft pick signed?

Yep, he's never failed to sign a 1st round pick - pretty hard to grasp for you, huh? Once again in the Moore era, the Royals go well over slot on a 1st round pick, spend a ton on the draft, and a few idiot fans don't have anything to cry about for the time being.

Can't wait until next year where you're back here complaining about how cheap Glass is and that we'll probably not sign our 1st round pick. Simpletons are so fun to converse with.

GLASS IS CHEAP! GLASS IS CHEAP! GLASS IS CHEAP!

LOL

Do you understand that Glass has been around longer than '05? He's the common denominator, ace. Before '05 picks were largely made BECAUSE THEY'D SIGN, so this is the weakest piece of evidence I've seen on here in a long time. You're convinced that Glass has changed. Great. I'm not.

This year's draft is a MAJOR step in the right direction. Let's see if he keeps this rolling by continuing to add to the ML payroll, which is much needed.

You calling others names is pretty funny, actually.

Of course, and not one person in this entire thread has argued that he's been Steinbrennerish during his tenure here. He certainly made mistakes early on and was cheap - NO ONE IS DENYING THAT. However, he has also changed his ways over the last few years, evidenced by increased spending on the draft, in FA, and in Latin America. If you can't see that, then again, you are a simpleton.

Can't you say that about any GM? "Well he's doing good, but let's see what he'll do in the future". Wow, no duh Sherlock. Bottom line, Glass was cheap in the past, but has done a complete 180 over the past few seasons during the Dayton Moore era. I'm not sure why any reasonable fan could have anymore hesitation at this point.

Who's calling names?
