Apologies to my non-sports-reading readers, but I just spotted this — what the hell is going on in Kansas City? Is Dayton Moore trying to collect every sub-.300 OBP player in baseball?

Last year the Royals drew 457 walks. There are currently about 450 Siberian tigers left in the wild. Anyone want to bet which ends up being more rare in 2010? This isn’t just wishful thinking, but I really think the Tiger is going to bounce back. Yuniesky Betancourt’s batting eye, not so much.

Awesome

Even uber-liberal Rolling Stone writer Matt Taibbi took time out from crusading against Wall Street investment banks to take note of The Process on his blog.

Uh-oh, update The Contest

I’m not anti-Royals, and Greinke is awesome (although "top notch rotation" might be stretching it when you have another team in the division with Buehrle, Peavy, Danks and Floyd) but Moore makes Omar Minaya look like Otto Bismarck.

emphasis mine
