Game 20 Open Thread - Indians (7-12) at Royals (9-10)

PrintCleveland Indians at Kansas City Royals, Apr 22, 2008 8:10 PM EDT
Have the 2008 Royals said goodbye to .500 baseball forever? They kept their heads above water until game 18 and then fell below the line the very next day, getting swept by the A's along the way. If the Royals drop to 9-11, then you start needing a win streak just to get back over .500, which may be too much to ask a team that is on pace to score like 400 runs this season and still has Brett Tomko in the rotation. I hate to say it, but a loss tonight might mean the Royals don't see .500 again this year, which would be a very sad thing. Well, man is born to suffering.
C.C., what do you see see when you looksie in the mirror?
Of course, the Royals won't lose tonight in the first place, because man's man Gil Meche will be making the start. And since the Royals made him their number one stud, he's become a new man, confident, but not pitching angry, or something like that. He might also be the highest paid pitcher to -- to my recollection -- never record a 1-2-3 inning.
The countdown to Royals Review Fest continues!

A special thanks to my lack of cash, which hindered me from attending tonights game to stay at home and surf the series of tubes.

I'll Be Sitting
On my white trash patio listening to the game for a while this afternoon. It’s 60F, clear and calm; I shoveled about a foot and a half of wet, crusty snow to make a space for the chaise, and I’m walking on top of said crusted snow to get there, but I love it out there.
Let's go, boys, to the toppermost of the poppermost!

That's far too reasonable
I think we’re supposed to be in deranged team-hating mode right now. They all suck and/or are injury prone and/or are clubhouse cancers.
I probably disagree with you.

Get with the program!
Meche sucks. I don’t care what he did last year. He doesn’t have 1-2-3 innings!!!
DeJesus is alwasy injured. I don’t care if he wasn’t injured all last year. He’s always injured!!!
Butler is fat and has no power. I don’t care if it’s just been two weeks. He has no power!!! And he’s fat!!!
Gordon is mediocre and he strikes out too much. I don’t care if he’s been hitting well. He sucks!!!
Bannister is a flash in the pan. His one bad start tells you much more about him than his 3 good starts and his excellent rookie season. He sucks!!!
This team is awful in every way. 9-10? Soon it will be 9-20. The early pitching was a fluke and this last weekend proved it. The offense is horrible. The way they have hit for two weeks is the way they will hit all season and for the rest of time. Worse than ever!!!!!!!!!!!!111

What's it matter though if we can't get a run in
2 hits off a really good pitcher, can’t capitalize. We’ve made pitchers throw 20+ in the first inning a ton this season, then scored 1 run or none only to shut down for the rest of the game.

That simply cannot happen everytime. Besides… Gil is pitching, and looks good. Enjoy that.
