You have to appreciate the marketing acumen of the Royals.  Ensuring hundreds of thousands of their local fans have to go to ridiculous measures in order to watch their team. 

Nothing wins hearts and minds like ensuring that in the year of our Flying Spaghetti Monster 2022 thousands upon thousands of fans and potential fans are locked out of watching your alleged major league sports content on their TV.

pretty sure the mlb rules are what makes it suck

I was looking forward to watching The Royals show an enthusiasm level equal to an apple slice left on the counter for 6 hours. 

But alas, postponement.

Greinke Day!!
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Greinke Day!!

I went to my first game this year.  I wish they would replay some of his more filthy pitches on crown vision.  Maybe that's "unwritten" to not do that.

He did try and slowpitch / slow curve Miggy.  Miggy was having none of that.

Hoo boy it's dead in here. The Royals city connect jerseys are very disappointing, they are plain as crap. The rest of these city connect jerseys took big swings; Boston, Miami, Washington, the KC one, along with San Fran, are easily the most milquetoast. San Fran's actually looks like something that's actually milk toast.

Personally I like Boston, Houston of the ones I've seen.

Boring AF - LA, White Sox.

KC's is fine, nothing crazy.  I like using the City of Fountains KC logo as part of the design.

Is it because he's hitting .140 or got hurt again?  :lol:

I'm surprised he went this long before getting hurt, seeing the injury article come in was as predictable as the sun rising in the east. I like the guy as a person and player, but yeah, he's just not reliable and effective enough to be a major league ball player. He's the opposite of Cal Ripken Jr.

They don't make a lot of switch hitting shorts stops, with rapid speed and mlb genetics these days. I hate that he gets hurt all the time, but DFA'ing would be dumb AF.

It's not that big of a deal considering we have two other gold glove short stops on the team. We just slide them into his spot whenever he gets hurt.
