What did he do now

pissed off at Arcia for taking his time running the bases after his HR. Then got mad at a fan for whistling too loud. was all LOL

Nice job Mr Washburn Rural. Sheesh.

It's not his fault. There's only one baseball school in Topeka, and it's not Washburn Rural.

What do you think they'll do with Hosmer when he comes back? Let him dh a lil bit to see how he hits? Stick him right back at first and put Billy back to dh?

I would say DH and slowly bring him back, but my inner royal tells me he will be 1B and batting 3rd in the lineup.

Has to be putting him back at 1st...he's too good to keep him off the field.

dh for 15ish games slowly working him back into the lineup, billy hasn't hurt us as much defensively as i thought he would

Billy's been serviceable, nothing atrocious.  And whether it's coincidence or not, his hitting has been parallel to playing first.  It's not about Hoz ability to play first.

That's what I think they will do....bring him back a few games at DH I'm sure but he will be back at 1st w/in a week.  Billy did his job as the back-up first baseman (I do think he bats better when he plays the field).  Hopefully they won't eff with the batting order though.

there shouldn't be any huge rush to get him back tho, billy has done fine, no need to risk another set back.  we will need his d in the postseason if we make it, but we also could use his bat, so why risk it on games where billy can handle it on his own?

Maybe you are right....question was what do we think they will do...that's my guess as to what they will do.  I wouldn't have a problem with that either....do you wait for Billy to not make a play that Hoz would, then make the switch?  You put your best players on the field....Hosmer > Butler.  I agree don't rush him back and a couple games at DH can't hurt to get him back to MLB pitching.

ackowledging that the royals are winning in spite of ned rather than because of him is not a case of "cover their asses"

yeah i mean billy has been playing for a while now since hos has been out, there isn't going to be a single play where you say, yep, hos needs to be in.  idk i just think that billy plays well enough(sure as crap better than i thought he would do) and until you know hos can come back and play 100% don't force it.  we have played better without him since the break anyways so..
