Colorado Rockies at Kansas City Royals, Jun 24, 2008 8:10 PM EDT
The Royals reacquaint themselves with JDLR (6.52 ERA) tonight, in what promises to be an emotional night at the K. It should be especially difficult for Dayton to watch de la Rosa in Rocky gray, as he was always smitten with Jorge's electric stuff.
The Royals counter with Zack Greinke (3.33 ERA). I may be dead wrong, but Greinke seems to have been fairly "meh" for the last month or so. I'd love to see him turn in a truly virtuoso performance.
With another win, we can reclaim another fan in western Kansas. I want Royals fans on the ground in Goodland!

Grudge match!
JDLR is going to come out firing tonight.
By the way! Today is “Tear Down The Ceiling For No Goddamn Reason Night!” according to Mr. Fix-It, my idiot father. Honestly, it’s like the man is trying to sabotage our chance of putting the house on the market.

It's the reverse Will Ferrell effect
Ferrell makes like 3-4 funny ass movies and then he makes one that just sucks out loud (Bewitched, Elf, Stranger than Fiction). JDLR pitches horribly for 3-4 games, then looks like a Cy Young candidate.

And I resent NHZ getting ALL the credit for it
I was whining about it too. Just much more incoherently.
I can’t believe Jose Guillen give in to us babies
Maybe we should start complaining about Gordon making certain readers look righter than us with his lack of hits…

Once again,
Gordon’s year is basically signicant progress vs. righties and a complete inability to hit the ball off “non-normals.”

Gordon obviously watching A-Rod
with the totally Un-Clutch homerun
I hope Hillman sits him for a couple game to think about what he wants to do in this game.
