They like to forget that the Royals don't exist

I give it a day, though.

Bearddude tops some of the other people

I remember the D-Backs/Royals day game (9/4/03) with most of the 20K fans in cheaper than usual lower-deck seats. And I think some guy showed up in a chicken outfit or some sort of animal outfit and was in the right-field GA seats.

On checking BR.. we could have kept ourselves a half-game out if we had won. Lousy DJ Carrasco.

We have to find out

He’s no Courage the Mariners Fan, at least not yet, but it’s a start.

C’Mon, NYRoyal, admit it. The “NY” thing is just a ruse. And you did once claim that “beards are underrated.”

I’m in Canadia, it doesn’t count. And I couldn’t grow a beard in a million years.

Other possibilities:

—NHZ: claims he was on a “date” last night. I mean, what are the odds of that happening. In any case, the game was more depressing than The Dark Night. Who really knows if he lives in New England

—kscoliny. Intense dude. I can totally see it. Royals gear. That sounds like our boy.

—billybutlerformvp: not “exhiled” from Royals games

He was my first choice

But he would have been in total USF stuff, right?

The best thing about the dude is that he actually has “stereotypical baseball fan all over him.” Probably somewhere between 25-40. Probably played a little ball (jock past his prime). Keeping score. Undoubtedly a bit drunk. Weearing some gear. Getting super excited. Decent “girth.”

We need to rate his “tools.” The enthusiasm for Pena’s at least a 65. Indeed, for every fan video, we should play the “Dayton Game.”

Wait a minute, Retro, YOU have season tickets… Trying to throw me off with Joel, knowing my undying love for jmoney… very clever. You just shot to the top of the list.

remind me, who was the guy with the totally Royal-ed out wedding?

Could that be our mystery man? Of course, I didn’t see a wife there. On the other hand, when you have a totally Royal-ed out wedding, maybe having a wife around becomes less and less probable.

(Of course, I’m just saying all of this out of envy.)

is it bad that I fully plan on

royal-ing out my own wedding? Not to like, the extreme of wearing a powder blue dress or anything, but…

How dare you sir

I don’t approve of your gotcha blog journalism.

Actually, my wife would love for me to grow a full beard, but I just don’t like the Grizzly Adams look.

This is just my opinion. I could easily be wrong.

my thoughts exactly

We are all dancing around the issue

Should Pena be throwing some side sessions to see if this was a total fluke.

Its pretty bizarre

Its definitely enough to make you wonder…

by raefzilla on Jul 22, 2008 4:33 PM EDT up 0 recs

He did hit a homer this season

And that seems much, much, less likely than the possibility of him being worthwhile mop-up man/25th man/utility infielder. He might almost be useful then.

a pitcher with shortstop range that can induce groundballs

is like gold

i didn't read that

TPJ made such a good defensive play for the first out. though i hate to say it, it was kind of impressive, actually

by benfunke on Jul 22, 2008 7:24 PM EDT up 0 recs

My favorite part

...is still when Ryan starts talking about making sure Pena doesn’t hurt himself.

Yeah, God forbid if we have to call up someone like Maier or Costa who can hit.

by sconieroyal on Jul 22, 2008 4:35 PM EDT 0 recs

I laughed too.

:)

“Wait…what’s the downside on him hurting himself?”

by Nyghtewynd on Jul 22, 2008 4:37 PM EDT up 0 recs

Hmmm...

If it keeps him from…y’know…hitting….I’m all for it. He couldn’t be any worse than Gobble was.

by Nyghtewynd on Jul 22, 2008 4:37 PM EDT 0 recs

We should at least consider

Going back down to 11 pitchers, bringing up a hitter, and having Pena work on his pitching to appear in blowouts.

Of course, it might still be more helpful to the Royals

To have Gobble work on his hitting

Roster move time

Peralta is back up from Omaha
Gobble is on the DL with a back strain (presumably from being left out to throw 45 pitches last night)

by BHWick on Jul 22, 2008 5:17 PM EDT 0 recs

Sure its not a neck strain

From having to watch all those hits off him?

does this mean that he can't play for a few days

because he needs to rest his arm?
