Royal Link Roundup: Playoff Talk, Hosmer Love, Cadahia Crowned, & Old People Having Kids
As I do my part to help you waste time online this Monday... The coaching staff churn is discussed, along with the newest farmhand Ethan Hollingsworth (who I keep wanting to call Chillingsworth). There's also endless prospect chatter, playoff talk from around the web and the usual sundry selection in the grab bag.

I was supposed to read The Scarlet Letter my junior year of high school.
Thank you SparkNotes.
Gentlemen, you can't fight in here. This is the war room!
Also, re: The Farmer's Almanac:
I sort of fancy myself as a crotchety old man in the body of a guy in his mid 20s, but the Farmer’s Almanac isn’t the type of thing that would appeal to me. Out of curiosity, I recently opened one up in a store and it was loads of advertisements, and the first actual content I found was astrology, which is complete crap. Very interesting article though.

I like how the meme went from "Cliff Lee is a big game pitcher" to "Cliff Lee isn't all that good"
With one start.

you'd like to think...
that baseball fans, of all people, with our 162-game-schedule-“you-need-to-mind-sample-size”- mentality, would be a little less fickle and understanding the meaning of of either one good or bad game, week, month, or even year.
If women only slept with nice guys...guys would only be nice. And they don't. And we're not.

To be fair, I think it's based on this and his two rough starts in last year's WS.

Yep. Replacement level at best.

Good photo selection
The photo says everything that you need to know about the Royals. And about baseball in general. And literature, parenting and politics.
If Hollingsworth actually had a decent shot of getting mentioned again
he would be known from this moment forward as Chillingsworth.
