Royals to the NL?

"Thanks to royalsfan7 at Royals Corner for revealing this rumor. According to this Cubs blog:


Quote:
"Bill Madden from the NY Daily News was on WEEI's baseball show Sunday morning and said something in passing that I found interesting.

The Royals who turned down the chance to move to the NL a decade ago have reconsidered things and have asked Bud about changing leagues. They cite being between St Louis and Denver as being a reason and would love being in the same division as the Cards.

Now Madden claims the Brewers would not mind coming back to the AL. The Brewers ownership has discovered that many fans miss the AL and that was brought home last April when the Indians drew very well on short notice when games were moved to Milwaukee. They have also found that Brewers fans resent Miller Park becoming Wrigley North when the Cubs play there.

On the surface it seems like a win win for everybody.""

I doubt it would happen but I would be for it.

The Royals won't be serious contenders in the AL Central for awhile, but hey could be a pretty good team in the NL Central.

They should just flip back and forth depending on which league is weaker.

[QuinnMac]

No way the NL will be the weaker league forever, but I think in the near future things will stay the same, and Royals would be much more competitive in the NL central

As long as they let Zack Greinke hit in every game....

They should make the switch.  NL is more fun to watch and its suckier, so a horrible team like KC might not be out of it by May 1 every year.
