He has tender ribs. (Jack Stack might be interested.) I'd say they don't rush him back. |

Welp, that may about close the book on the 2021 season. Hard to see them generating enough offense to win games with him out for a significant amount of time, in addition to Mondi's hammy and having no idea when he might be back and healthy enough to contribute and pick up some slack. Just brutal news on those 2 in the last couple weeks. Unless the starters start pitching lights out, I'm afraid it may be all downhill from here . . . . . . . This sucks. Really thought they had a legit shot at finishing .500 this year. |

Well shit! Benintendi and Mondesi, maybe Mondesi can return this week? And "most of the 2020 season" isn't like a whole season. So there's that. Wait and see I guess.

Dang it. Bene was arguably our most consistent hitter. #vote Salvy.

The run differential thus far should have warned everyone ‘don’t buy the hype’. The White Sox were always the best team in this division and were always going to win it running away. They have more talent than the Royals right now at the Big League level and more importantly, most of their young guys, especially their pitchers, have established themselves at the major league level after REALLY struggling for a couple years. At least our pitching staff leads the American League in walks issued, so they can look at that as an easy starting place to strive for improvement. You've simply lost your patience and perspective. This is certainly no different for the Royals 2018 draft crop. They’re all going to have to take their lumps for a while. It’s how you learn. When Hosmer, Moose, Salvy, Duffy and Ventura came up they didn’t have immediate success. It took a few years to build something. Ventura tries so hard he drove his Jeep off an embankment and died. Does that effort mean nothing to you? Give em time. Soler needs time. Michael A. Taylor needs time. We probably need to pay Dozier better. Keller, Lynch, Singer need time. Kowar just needs a ump with a more favorable strike zone. I'm sure the Royals are trying as hard as they can to please you every night. Gutierrez may not hit much, but at least he's a solid defensive player you can always rely on. I'm encouraged that Mondesi made it safely home; getting on an airplane -pressurized at 30,000 feet- without further injury to himself. Poor Benny. You must believe he cracked his rib on purpose so he wouldn't have to face his old Boston family this weekend. Not true. He hurt himself throwing a ball in from the outfield. That's dangerous! Wade Davis is trying as hard as he can for you, working on a 45 mph change up. Bubich goes out there and gives it his all, even though he's got the word "Bitch" in his last name. He has feelings; deep, complex feelings that can be easily damaged by those who would mock him. People like you who have lost faith. Baseball reference says the team at this point has a 0.1% chance to make the World Series. So there is hope. I'm shocked and disappointed that you have posted these comments towards the Royals. Shame on you. They come across as nothing more than the snide defeatist comments of someone reveling in their losing. You must be a miserable individual. I suggest your mom must have birthed you out of wedlock. You should engage in more meaningful baseball discussions here, and be more positive and productive. Surely other people in this thread will soon point this out besides me. Chin up little camper! |

I'm not on the fire GMDM train or the fire Matheny train. But to me this is a put up or shut up year for Bradshaw and Eldred. It is critical we have competent people in those spots as our young bats and arms start out next season. Last edited by Chiefspants; 06-14-2021 at 10:00 PM.. |

2-35 in their last 35 at bats with runners in scoring position?
Good God!! I have no idea how any Major League team can be that bad. |

The Chiken Tendi news is just awful. Soler had a decent night. The 12-13 risp sucks ass,.as does the starting pitching. I'd say the guys left on base is a.product of young hitting butI think it's more about the absolute black hole that is Dozier.

Guys not slapping to opposite field to move runners, etc. Lots of selfish swings (for the fences), rather than doing the big-league thing.
