No problem.

Trey will simply pinch hit. He’s clever like that. :) Wait a minute, Trey really is going to pinch hit! It must be opposite Trey day. He’s making nice moves. Hopefully he’ll be rewarded so he’ll try these things again.

Best baseball team in Kansas City, MO

I don’t include Kansas City, KS in that. That would be unfair to the T-Bones.

funny thing about Teahen

his errors are never backbreaking. callaspo’s ball through the legs was a killer, and he’s made some other horrendous errors. not sure why Teahen gets picked on so much. ;P

it's been conclusively proven he can't

The one thing that'd concern me about him as a potential starter

is that I don’t know if Hillman/Moore would handle it the right way.

You mean just putting him in the rotation next week on a 120 pitch count isn’t the right way?

Well, I wasn't counting his past starting experience as

on the level of the American League. I just think he has the arsenal to do it. Some of the clauses in his contract seem to suggest the Royals think he might as well.

And yeah, 2005.

So that was cool

And also his 19th inning pitched this season.

Good game though, I liked the Royals showing the intestines to come back.

And Hochevar did actually have a pretty good outing – our defense just sucks.

We have at least one every year :(

The 2nd year in baseball is the hardest.
It was for Greinke, Aviles, and anyone else who has done well. I need not even mention Hamelin, Berroa and the rest of the crew.
Those who survive the 2nd year have survived the hardest year.
