...and that fan was me. I think I speak for quite a few of us on most things.
Royals have released struggling (in AAA) Dan Wheeler.
Hey everyone. I’m in charge of the Royals for the CMD over at Sickels site this year and as always the best results from these come from a collaborative team effort. I’ve posted our first MOD over at the site. Feel free to give input on it. Also we need Assistants to suggest picks and potentially fill in for me if I can’t make it to the draft. http://www.minorleagueball.com/2013/5/10/4319276/royals-mod-1
The Royals are somewhat relevant in the national media. At least for a week or two.

Can't stress this enough: Do not run on Jeff Francoeur. It will not end well: atmlb.com/10eHHnn #Royals

The Royals official twitter feed has a positive tweet about Jeff Francoeur after Monday afternoon's game. He had about as bad of a game as a player can have, and yet the Royals are singing his praises. How bad would he have to perform before the Royals even consider platooning him, let alone release him?
