Cueto had almost a 5 era in his dozen or so starts for the royals, compadre.
Nice oversight of the two most important postseason starts in Royals postseason history, shithead.

The most important player in out 2015 run was Carlos Correa booting a sunday hop in g4 of the divisionals.

Cueto had 2 good starts and 1 atrocious start in the post season. He was not the ace, rather the #3 pitcher. Not sure why you think game 2 of the ws was so much more important than the other 3 we won. Complete revisionist history to say cueto was some dominant irreplaceable force on the 2015 team.

What are the odds that you give the Royals to win the world series in 2015 without Cueto, wacky? You have full benefit of hindsight.

I've legit told you guys that the players we sold off helped get the current Reds Manager fired for sucking so bad and you're still bitching about Cueto who made history in his starts in the postseason. I feel like i'm taking crazy pills right now. I'm sorry you couldn't enjoy this:

I bet FSD hated him because he had dreads.

Nobody is bitching about Cueto.

This is what bitching about Cueto looks like, fwiw.

Cueto is such a dick. I mean, he agreed to some radio thing here in KC and didn't show up. Kids got out of school to see him too! And now all he does, is give up bombs!

I've got no problem in hindsight with the Cueto trade. I do believe he was a big part of winning the WS. Finn was a bit of a hit, but Reed and Lamb have been pretty bad for Cinci.

Yeah, I'm about 90% sure we still would have won the world series without him, but that uncertainty still makes the trade worth it to me.

Yep. I said it at the time, any move that helped lead to a WS title was worth it and I won't back down from that. It was an incredible run and getting B2B WS plus winning one was worth nearly every move we made IMHO. I'll be forever thankful to Moore/Yost for that, but clearly that doesn't give them a pass forever. They are now being judged on how they handle the rebuild after that and if things don't progress over the next couple of seasons they should be gone.

Sure would be nice to have Sean Manea back. We got fleeced by the A’s .

The Correa boot's importance is overstated.

I think you have to be high on drugs before you discuss it too, because it's so far out there.

Not to be a debbie downer, but the load we shipped out for cueto would probably be on the roster or traded for parts on the roster that would have won more than 3 games at this juncture.

But man, there's nothing more gratifying than watching Duda, Goins, Esky and Almonte consume at bats in their pointless careers because we literally have no high level talent in the system.

Somebody is bound to have a 3rd baseman get hurt this July. The prospects we get from Moose, plus the overall number 1 pick in the draft, should have us well on our way toward being competitive around 2028.
