Hmm
he Royals are working on falling to 7-6 despite getting the best starting pitching in baseball to begin the season.
it’s sad isn’t it?
it's just too bad
the market for hitting blew up this winter. We just couldn’t afford any good hitting.
um, how bout a double play?
realistically speaking
not as good as a dp

This offense is unwatchable against lefties this year
I don't know how to put this but I'm kind of a big deal.
wow
this game is AWFUL
thank you trey for giving away the game on sunday. really
realistically speaking
When this happens
I will throw something at the computer monitor. Yeah, that’ll show Trey.

yeah...
that’s not gonna last, not with this (lack of) offense and bullpen management
by RoyalsFanInBillings on Apr 21, 2009 8:48 PM EDT up reply actions
Cliff Lee must have told Laffey how to throw against us
not pitch just throw
I don't know how to put this but I'm kind of a big deal.
after the 1st inning
4IP, 43 pitches for laffey
realistically speaking
Darrell May is disgusted at that remark
….and Scott Elarton is sending you nasty emails as we speak!
by Fernando Vina School of Linguistics on Apr 21, 2009 8:48 PM EDT up reply actions
on the dark side, even tony muser could have managed our bullpen better
no, i’m not going to let it go, ever

that's...

Of course, how many people have one of those
Some like Jeter or Pujols have been some many times their jersey’s are everywhere
I believe that Cleveland must be cheating
that is the only rational explanation.

by blue bandwagon on Apr 21, 2009 8:55 PM EDT up reply actions
i dont get why we're pulling tejeda
he’s only thrown 30 pitches and he got jobbed on a couple of those calls to cabrera
realistically speaking
how many runs will horam give up?
5
realistically speaking
This game does feel eerily 2004/2005
empty stadium, crappy hitting/pitching/defense. Players (Tejeda) making comical f-ups unaided. And getting blown out.
The Allard Baird of incisive internet discourse.
Except....I still think we can screw around and win.....
Just get two runs and we’re only down 3.
If you don't understand it, kill it.
ha!
thats all i got

if soria is going to have to pitch in this clusterfuck
i’d have rather seen him come in right now

I will throw my TV
if HoRam throws 4 perfect innings

This is kind of fun.
Royals claimed Travis Metcalf a couple weeks ago. When you go to his player page it has video of two of his home runs, from his time with the Rangers. He’s a former Jayhawk!!!!

I'm hoping for an inside-the-park grand slam.
I’ve never understood that part of the Sonic Slam inning.

son of a bitch
Minor League gameday is not working at all, so I can’t see Omaha face Neftali Perez. They scored 4 off him in the first inning though.
WTF, self?
Yes, Yes we are
HoRam has got 3 outs for no runs. That is a victory.

nope...
but we should get a nice participation medal

see ho ram shoulda started tomorrow guys
suckers, GMDM knew best all along
realistically speaking
The farthest I ever saw a baseball hit...
was Willy Mo Pena in BP at the K, hit one over the hot dog stand behind the left field outfield seats
Are you telling me Jesus Christ cant hit a curve ball?
I saw Sammy Sosa hit one 520 out of Wrigley
I think they put some sort of landmark where it landed in the street.
If you don't understand it, kill it.
juan gone hit one over the old truck when i was there once...
this was before he was utterly useless (i.e. when the royals decided to sign him)

The hardest hit I've seen was Willo Mo Pena
at Kaufman. He hit it in a game over the GA seats in left field at the end of the concourse behind them.

paying for meal plan = ftl :(
realistically speaking
Nope, I'm an RA.
That shit’s free.
But the snack bar I’m about to visit isn’t free….oh well.
WTF, self?
did i mention cake AND ice cream
while i don’t enjoy baking… my wife is out of town for the week and i’m taking the opportunity to eat an entire cake over the next few days by myself without her knowledge.
too busy looking at facebook
at photo albums of people she doesn’t know.
Hmmmm....
See what happens when you put pitchers in the right situation? Trey?
If you don't understand it, kill it.
best case scenario
ho-ram finds some respectability in the bullpen and becomes a halfway decent middle reliever
realistically speaking
+1
worse case situation…he pitches well enough in low-leverage situations the Trey decides to keep trotting him out there with the game on the line.

for a completely meaningless Solo HR

i'm watching the marlins pirates game
funny listening to the pirates announcers bust a nut over their pitching staff, which is doing its best “brian bannister when he’s good impression”, IE, giving up very few hits and runs while striking nobody out and not exhibiting great control
gonna suck for them when that illusion comes crashing down
realistically speaking
For a second...
I thought I was watching Major league there
