Fuck both of them

I hope Gutierrez and Cortes blow their shoulders out tomorrow (or at least get caught urinating in public or smoking some weed). :)

Can't blame either guy for thinking it,

but do something first fellas.

He can get 4, NOT 5.

I know where I would rather be out of Seattle/Texas or Kansas City if I was a prospect and wanted a shot ahead of an overpaid and crappy veteran. And I if I wanted to avoid a holier-than-though tool judging my private life as the main criterion as to my worth as a baseball player.

You know....

…. he’ll probably say that when he’s no longer in the Rangers organization.

So a kid who felt the organization screwed him over this year is happy to be with a new team?

I’m shocked

Unless I'm wrong...

maybe not beat on your girl, either

hey, staying away from the booze does make it more likely that you won’t beat on your girl.

That status is also an epic “jerk move” since there’s quite a few Royals minor leaguers on D-Gut’s friends list

if there's one thing the Royals don't tolerate

it’s guys who beat up their significant others!

Feels like the Royals have been abusing him for five years, and yet he keeps coming back for more.

Is this evidence of some kind of split between players and the KC organization in the lower levels of the minors?

I know you all don’t think much of me here, but I’m only asking because I want to be informed with what’s going on with your organization. I want the Royals to turn things around so badly

Do the prospects underperforming at the lower levels have anything to do with this split also?

by oc on Sep 6, 2009 4:23 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs

I don't think so.

D Gut would have had problems anywhere he was.

Other places wouldn't see it as a sign of the devil

And trade his huge upside talent for a couple of very limited players.

Trust the process.

I don't really know how to interpret the comments above

(And sorry for the faulty photograph – I snapped it with my digital cam because I don’t know how to post URLs of snapped photos on webpages via my laptop [sorry to bother ya at 12:30 a.m., doublestix!]).

These remarks might demonstrate how prevalent this attitude is…even among Royals MiLBers. Giavotella, Duffy, Runion, and others would have likely seen this comment (which has now been deleted from his profile).

Get treated. Royally.
