Listening to Rany on with Soren yesterday got me VERY excited for Royals baseball.

Apparently "Big Game" James still can't decide. We've improved our pitching. I like James, but if he wants to move on, so be it. I like what we've done with the starters in the off season.

Good spot for him, their defense is likely going to be pretty meh, but the size of the park might allow him to maintain his effectiveness for longer, assuming all the innings he's pitched don't cause his arm to fall off.

I'd be concerned about his arm in year 3 and 4 but he's a good fit for them this year and next. Seems like he helped the overall rotation with his work ethic/blah blah and will give them quality innings. Should have amazing run support.

James Shields was a fantastic Royal, and not only will I miss him but I will be cheering for him throughout the remainder of his career. Good luck, Juego.

The trade was worth it, but i wish he would have put up a better game in game 1 of the WS but i have no ill feelings towards James.

Yordano should probably hide the pill bottles when he gets mumped up and makes Instagram videos.

I kind of forgot how much I love Yordano until I saw his name again. Baseball season can't get here soon enough!

It's always great when the biggest Royals fan on this blog declares his excitement.

Isn't pretty much every pill a PED? ???

For that money, I wish we would have signed Shields.
