The Royals

[j-dub]

guys, i just want a guy who can pinch hit homers and play a little RF if necessary.

i don't think maxwell is that guy. so i hope we look for one of those guys.

apparently the phillies may be open to shopping john mayberry jr.

would take imo.

would take extremely hard. he was a senior in HS when i was a freshman and he was really nice and never once did anything mean like give me a wedgie or a noogie

that settles it!! bring him home dayton 

[ksupamplemousse]

Played on a fall ball team with him one time, can confirm the reports of him being a super nice guy who is a stud at baseball.

I remember a time a few weeks back when I'd be off the board for half a day and miss maybe 3 or 4 posts in this thread, now there's 3 or 4 pages!

i can't wait to go home from the usa match and fire up strikeout.co to find that verlander has given up 6 runs in 3 and a third 

by the way,

So we end the season in Chicago again just like last year. If things continue, I'm gonna book my trip to be there sometime in July. Can you imagine watching the Royals clinch a playoff spot (HOPEFULLY A DIVISION CROWN) on the South Side of Chicago? I think it would be more fun than the actual playoff games. I mean, wow, just close your eyes and picture it. Lets all dream this dream for a few seconds, together.

Anyone cheering for the boys in blue would be valued there. Plus you and me are IRL friends so its a win win.

Cats will prob play in the evening. Binge Friday night + Royals Sat afternoon in Chi + More binging post-Yals while Pak'n and EMAW'n at some booze establishment Sat evening + Royals v Sox Sunday (reg. season finale/ playoff sendoff) afternoon before heading back. What's not to like?

Ms. Wacky's bro lives in Chicago now. Maybe I can make that my excuse. 2 birds, 1 stone!

WC I'm using the "hey babe, anniversary trip? oh i noticed royals are there the weekend we planned to be in chicago! catch a ball game while we're there?" 2 birds one stone maneuver if it comes to that

This thing is going to have to really grow some legs before I consider foregoing a Saturday Gameday in MHK and that is just the way it is. Sorry, guys.

Alex Gordon ranks second in the American League in position-player WAR. He trails only Mike Trout.

 
Did not realize he was so high.

Can we talk about how awesome Alex Gordon has been?

It's frustrating that Ned is stubborn about changing the batting order.

 
I think one of the most frustrating things about Ned is that he tinkers with the order constantly, but then won't make the changes that seem obvious to everyone.

He manages on feel, especially on offense, its not going to make sense to those of us who aren't him.

Guys Gordon is a legit MVP candidate.
