This stage of grieving by CF3 is hard to watch.  Hopefully the next stage comes quickly for his sake.

He seems to be in more of a indifference mode than anger.

I need everyone to recognize this is the best thing for the franchise.

No doubt. But we know that won't happen. Root for the losses to pile up and for Hos, Moose, Cain and Vargas to increase/maintain value when July rolls around. Esky could just get DFA'd.

its not hate. its assessing his ability to play baseball at the major league level, which has diminished to a point where i'm not sure he can anymore.

Gordon is overrated, always has been.  Strikeout machine.  Might as well stick Bubba Starling out there.

easy. his 2011 season might be the best non-George Brett season by a Royals player.

Sorry he signed a contract he was offered?

Good grief.

only year he's hit over .300 (.303), only year over 20 HR's (23) and 87 RBI, a good year for sure, sadly it was the pinnacle.  other than that very mediocre stick for a corner outfielder.  great defender though.

If someone posts a RISP stat so help me

Lol.

They suck at every Offensive category including that one.   Actually they do have 20 HRs. That one doesn't suck. Problem is 17 are Solo HR and 3 of them are 2 run HR.

Guys. I'm as disappointed in Gordon as you all are. Girls. I'm as disappointed in Gordon as you all are.

I have faith he will get it together.
