Kansas City Royals at Cleveland Indians, Aug 19, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
The battle for fourth place continues tonight in Cleveland. Sorta ironic timing for this series, as I spent most of the summer in Cleveland and got married there on the 16th.
Unfortunately, the Royals just missed me, or me them...
The Royals are 4-4 against the Tribe in 2008.

Missed first by a second...
How ironic.

Does anyone have MLB.tv.. and if you aren't blacked out is it worth the price?

Love MLB.tv. I usually can’t watch games live because of my work schedule, so it acts as a Tivo for me. Can’t speak to the Windows experience, but the performance is rock solid for Linux users.

Hosmer to Idaho Falls this weekend...
Hosmer’s debut
Want an idea of how advanced the Royals see first baseman Eric Hosmer, the 18-year-old selected with the third overall pick in the June draft?
Hosmer will bypass the Arizona Rookie League and begin his professional career Saturday at Idaho Falls. Such a jump is unusual for a high-school player, but the Royals did the same thing last year with infielder Mike Moustakas.
Hosmer is in game shape from a summer spent with the Midland (Ohio) Redskins, an amateur team for 16-18 year-olds in the Connie Mack League.

A good team sees the pitcher's approach in the first inning
and figures out how to beat him early. That’s why Luke struggled the second. Indians coaches said, hey, he’s a sinkerballer, you beat him hitting it the other way. He’s leaving it up for us we just have to hit it… what’d they Indians do? Started going the other way…

He's still young and inconsistant...
The only problem with him being the #1 overall is you expect him to be lights out Lincecum style…. instead he still is learning…..

I don't know why, but this year's team is pissing me off more and more.
Maybe I’ve just became more of a fan this year because I can watch them almost all of the time. But games like tonight make me question my loyalty. I’m from the KC area, I love Kaufman, and I love their uniforms. I’m a little too young to remember the 80’s. I was born in 82. But I do know I grew up thinking George Brett could walk on water. I want to be around when they become good. But FUCK, that looks like a long road.

We need wisdom from the Lion King here
(Rafiki hits Simba on the head with his stick)
Simba: Ow! Jeez, what was that for?
Rafiki: It doesn’t matter. It’s in the past.
Simba: Yeah, but it still hurts.
Rafiki: Oh yes, the past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it, or… learn from it.

That was a good productive AB. It took 90% of the DP possibilities AWAY from Guillen while providing him a chance to get an RBI. Not a terrible AB. Tried to pull it on the ground, did his job.

9 hits, one walk… only 3 runs through 4.0? How did he escape all that?

So
did Luke get hurt? or does Trey the genius think that Nunez needs to play every other night?
by BHWick on Aug 19, 2008 9:16 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
IT IS OFFICIAL
Nunez Blows !!! What has happened to the bullpen since the trade deadline? Mahay, Nunez have been garbage and RamRam has been bailed out of two jams he created. Pretty poor when Tejeda is your setup man.

If Wells does any good the rest of the year,
he better remember our loyalty to give him a shot after the Rockies released him.
