Can't join the bandwagon yet boys.......I hate Ned so much.....waiting for the usual lose 8 out of 10 kinda streak........

Agreed, if we do good and make the postseason it most likely saves Yost's job. How many times has he managed us out of a win or into a loss?

like, hardly at all.

dayton has assembled a freaking fantastic team. if everybody hit their career averages, we'd be unbelievable

kslim · « **Reply #11805 on:** June 17, 2014, 11:48:07 AM »

who does dayton go after? has to be a stud pitcher right?

I would assume the biggest bat he can find.

yeah on opposite day that would be the first thing dayton should go after

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

Did not realize he was so high.

They'll add at least one bullpen arm. Beyond that, maybe another bat off the bench. I bet most of the fanbase is underwhelmed by anything they add

well boys, looks like we're seeing the downside to success.

idiots are invading this thread faster than floodwaters advancing upon ames, iowa.

definitely, when you are in a playoff race the first thing you should do is strengthen the strongest part of your strong strengths, so that you have the absolute strongest strong strength

i think i am getting trolled here guys

I hope we absolutely demoralize Scherzer tonight. Like, I hope Denny tells me on the radio tonight that Salvy made him cry.

Did you watch the game last night? Long relief is an actual thing

mocat · « **Reply #11815 on:** June 17, 2014, 12:02:33 PM »

yeah we played our shittiest relievers so as not to play our actual relievers because we were up 9 rough ridin' runs with 6 outs left in the game. gmafb here sabination

I'm not a very good Royals poster but I sure like 'em.

mocat · « **Reply #11817 on:** June 17, 2014, 12:03:33 PM »

i'm getting all worked up

kslim · « **Reply #11818 on:** June 17, 2014, 12:03:35 PM »

market isnt great for a bat right now. im not a royals fan as most of you know im just trying to see what YOU guys think you need

mocat · « **Reply #11819 on:** June 17, 2014, 12:04:27 PM »

we need our hitters to hit the way they are capable of (they have for the entire month of June so far). that's really it.

I get what you're saying, but Davis, Holland and Crow can't throw every night. Herrera has been good as well. Is that enough to win a world series? Absolutely not

j-dub · « **Reply #11821 on:** June 17, 2014, 12:08:29 PM »

i'll say this for sabi. crow and kelvin worry me. and i don't trust tim collins at all. but yeah...

the 'pen is far less worrisome than rf/3b. though i have hope for moose. he's been serviceable lately.

i really wish zimmer would've stayed healthy and moved quickly through the system. he could have been a hell of a card to pull in septmeber.

I didn't realize there was such a thing as a "snobby Royals fan" until I found this thread. OMG, woof!

what do you think about adding a guy like marlon byrd who could play RF/DH

i'm kinda done with aoki. and he's gone after this year anyway.

i also wouldn't mind putting dyson in CF and Cain in RF if dyson keeps hitting
