Some losses are fun.  That loss was not one of them.  Most likely of the 4 to lose but damn.  3 errors?  bloop hits? 

Go rest up guys, I hear you were weally weally tired.

[Dr Rick Daris]

First place on September 11th....it's not easy.

Tough game. Kids had a great time though. I had each of them get custom made Royals jerseys to help us remember what happened 13 years ago, we even made it on the Royals twitter. Tried to get a ball a few times but this Eddie Murphy looking Red Sox fan kept giving me dirty looks.

Seriously though. Anyone still disagree that there is a standard and consequences for Billy, and not for anyone else? Hosmer is a crap show in the field, and Willingham has 1 extra base hit since 8/23. Meanwhile Billy had his best month in August and rides the pine.

It's Mike Sweeney. No contest.

this team plays it's best by far when billy is playing and hitting. he can't do that from the bench. play him and let the chips fall.

His 2nd half of August was pretty miserable actually.  That said, the other two aren't doing anything either.  I'd still have hoz at 1st and Billy at DH despite hosmer's poor last few games on defense.  We've all seen what Butler does at 1st over his career...we had to have better out of that position.

They are 1 game under in games where he sits

Give Billy a chance, Ned. Now.

And now, from Jeff Flanagan: Ned says Billy will "probably" play Friday. Play him, Ned, play him.

[Phil Titola]

Give Billy a chance, Ned. Now.

I agree he needs in over Willingham.

hosmer is not capable of being clutch at the plate. he just isn't. he's a rough ridin' loser. he's the opposite clutch and now he's playing a shitty first. at the very least, it should be hos/will/but evenly from here on out given opp pitching, etc.

Hosmer's head is clearly not in the game this week. Perhaps he needs to sit so it doesn't "get in his dome"

Dayton and Ned's little Coddlettes are just tuckered out, that's all.
