Hey All-
Joe Sheehan put together a nice little analysis of the Royals under Dayton Moore today over at BP.  It's more retrospective than prospective--more about why the Royals are better now than they were four months ago and less about what it all means for next year--but it's still a pretty good read.  And let's face it, we all love to read about Royals successes, no matter how meager.

Interesting tidbit is that the Royals have basically played even with the Tigers since July 15.  That team (the Tigers) is looking more and more like the '03 Royals, except their season's being driven by potentially great pitchers having very good seasons while the R's '03 was driven more by great and clutch hitting and a flukey four months of Lima-Time.
