Damn it's been a weird day. Apparently, the games will go on, however.
Bruce Chen versus Mark the Unspellable. Love it.

Still suffering from the greatest robbery of all time: The stealing of the 1994 AL Central title from the Royals
and yes
the Royals best BA/OBP guy is batting 8th, the Royals best power guy is batting 6th, and Bloomy, DDJ, and Jose will anchor the offense
Still suffering from the greatest robbery of all time: The stealing of the 1994 AL Central title from the Royals
So stupid....
That and the sinking ship Willie Gritquist is still batting second instead of maybe giving Teahen a shot at the 2 slot. It couldnt hurt. And correct me if im wrong but Beurhle is a lefty! Why the fuck is Jacobs playing? B Pena DH please! So shitty
Jacobs batted 5th against Buerhle in April
now, DDJ batting leadoff NO MATTER WHAT… that’s fucking stupid
Still suffering from the greatest robbery of all time: The stealing of the 1994 AL Central title from the Royals
You guys have to admit that Jacobs should not be in the lineup. Period
I could care less what happened in April. That was when we hoped he would help, not destroy, the middle of the order. And I agree with the DDJ comment though
batting 7th is not as dumb as batting 5th
and Trey put Jacobs in the cleanup spot against John Danks.
Anyways.. the bench has to be leaving Trey paranoid about losing the DH if anything happens to Olivo
Still suffering from the greatest robbery of all time: The stealing of the 1994 AL Central title from the Royals
Ok well that makes a little more sense
But it also speaks volumes about how shitty this team is that they dont have a better option at DH than Cheek Cancer himself
unless i'm forgetting someone
the 4 man bench of Brayan, Louis Hernandez, Tug, and Teflon TPJ has to rank up there as the worst possible bench you could have.
I wouldn’t bring 3 of those 4 in to pinch hit, or as a defensive replacement
Still suffering from the greatest robbery of all time: The stealing of the 1994 AL Central title from the Royals
Would it be possible to send Tug on my nuts down
and bring up another catcher. Even one that is shitty just so we could maximize B Penas offense against lefties without worrying about Olivo getting tossed/hurt? I mean if tug hulett can be on this roster whats the prob with giving some other nobody catcher an opportunity to maximize the little offensive potential we could have with B Pena every other day or whatever. This might be crazy but at this point why not?

Let me say first that I’ve only driven through Atlanta once and know zip about the area, so I won’t say a word against it. But as it’s unfamiliar territory to me, to make the adjustment I’m going to need some companionship.

Got to prove they can make use of what they’ve got before we give them extra. In fact, they should cut back to one base coach and demonstrate some competence with him before they take on a second.

1. This is are a TERRIBLE base-running team. No, seriously, terrible, horrible, one of the worst in memory. According to the Bill James base running numbers (which you will recall simply measure going first to third, second to home, first to home and various bases taken and baserunning mistakes), the Royals are a minus-74 base running team this year. MINUS-74 in only 75 games. No other team is even close (Padres are -39). In fact, the worst base-running team since 2002, when Bill and the guys started keeping this stat, is the 2003 Brewers, who were minus-91. The Royals might get there by the All-Star Break.

Who thinks we pull a Gardenhire and send a reliever(s) down and get some bats for the bench? Given that all our starters tend to go deep, we really don’t need much relief if you think about it. And our pinch hitting/offense struggles, as we all know.
We don't need to send a reliever down.
We have four versions of the same hitter as it is.

That we don’t need to just “bring up more hitters” and instead should just send guys like Hulett, Hernandez and especially TPJ down? Bringing up more hitters will make those three even more worthless than they already area.
