Glad spring training stats don’t count or he might not have been the 5th starter.
DM understands spring training stats don’t count.
Go Royals!
BTW - thought this was interesting.
According to BB reference, every team in the AL Central except the Indians had a winning record against lefties.
Chicago 31-20
Minnesota 29-24
Cleveland 21-23
Kansas City 36-24
Detroit 26-22
It’s much more important to have GOOD pitchers no matter what hand they throw with. Of course just about everybody here understands that already.

Let's hope so!
So, I guess the philosophy is that having a LH starter “makes” the other pitchers better (or at least suck less).

COSTA NOW

Odds Costa makes the team?
I’m saying 3 to 1…much better now that it looks like we might carry 11 pitchers instead of 12.
I'd rather be watching baseball.
3-2 Rangers
"You know what, I mean I cried in bed for a while, moaning 'Why!? Why did this have to happen?'"

DP for Pena
end of the inning

Brayan, that is

I think he makes the roster so that they can trade him for something.
Then they bring up Hoochaver.
Go Royals!
I still say if one of the catchers is going...
it’s Buck.

ok more like everyone bid on whatever catcher you like...
and we will do the trade we want.
Go Royals!
I'd be okay with that
Buck and Olivo are pretty much interchangeable (other than their arms)…and Pena looks like he could easily handle the back up duties.
I'd rather be watching baseball.

the other option I think..
Is that DM grabs someone off of waivers and keeps him.
Go Royals!
3 run BOMB off Ho-Ram
"You know what, I mean I cried in bed for a while, moaning 'Why!? Why did this have to happen?'"
Zack Greinke on the Brad Pitt - Jennifer Aniston split
HoRam give up a 3 run shot, 6-2 Rangers
Go Royals!
haha I was just about to say this
off a guy who hit .190 in limited action in AAA ball
"You know what, I mean I cried in bed for a while, moaning 'Why!? Why did this have to happen?'"

We Obviously...
Haven’t found a way to make up for the loss of grit Rossie provided.
Are you telling me Jesus Christ cant hit a curve ball?
I wonder...

Crisco...Bardol...Vagisil
Any one of them will give you another two to three inches drop on your curve ball. Of course if the umps are watching me real close I’ll rub a little jalapeno up my nose, get it runnin’, and if I need to load the ball up I just…wipe my nose.

mmm, glad we took these extra spring training games as a way to get Teahen some more time at 2nd.
oh wait, playing him at DH for 3 innings and then pitch hitting for him instead.
Go Royals!
God...
I miss Phil Hartman.

He Pitched More
Effectively than Colon has this spring.
I used to be an A's fan until they left town and got good.

Predicted Star headline about this game tomorrow:
HILLMAN, MOORE SATISFIED WITH RAMIREZ OUTING
They will go on to laud how he managed to eat 6 innings, and also laud his fine control since he allowed only one walk. Throw in some mumbo jumbo about how he was working on ________, and the story practically writes itself.
Mr Glass, this is a pro sports team, not a retail store - run it like one!
