Bruce Chen should probably take the job of Mahay or Bale
Chen in the pen = Chen playing for 4 or 5 more teams and retiring when he’s 40.
I sure the hell would like for Chen to take Bale’s job. Or any LHP to take John Bale’s job.
Graduate with a B.S. from the Dayton Moore School of Stats Analysis
if you haven't noticed he's had 4 straight good starts
or 4 “quality starts” by that measure.
Why would anyone have a problem if he is our 5th starter, especially if Davies can be a solid reliever. Davies self destructs after a few innings anyway, he would be good in the pen

If Chen could cut back on his HR's he would be a fairly good pitcher...
but too often players square up on him.

This is fun
Chen threw two wild pitches, bringing the Royals’ total to 61, tops in the majors. No other team in the AL has more than 45.
from the recap
"The life of a (Royals) fan must be lived forward but can only be understood backward" -- Kierkegaard (more or less)
I am happy for Chen, taking the long road back to recovery, and getting a W
too bad Greinke or Banny, or Meche can’t get half of this run support, but that’s a whole ’nother topic
When super delayed gratification meets with underachieving veteran they laugh at the Royals, just a hypothesis though

Well, now Bruce can
cross “win a game in a Royals uniform” off his bucket list.
Seriously, that’s pretty much the only explanation I can think of as to why he’s still here and trying.
Chaim Mattis Keller New York City's # 1 Royals fan!
cross "win a game in a Royals uniform" off his bucket list
that is an immensely rare, rare item to be able to cross off
Hopes fade once again from blue to red. Go New Chiefs!!
Its kinda like the cycle for a hitter.
Go Royals!










![Until the Royals make the playoffs, schadenfreude will do.
