Figures that mocatmath is in bed with the worldwide leader in sports gossip

Man, if we win the division, we'll have off until Thursday and we can set up Shields/Duff/Ventura for games 1/2/3. Would Shields then pitch again in game 4? He'd be short a day's rest.

Hey guys lets talk about the rotation instead of fangraphs vs espn

[kslim]

I think we finish 3 and 2 honestly. First wildcard.

odds are a hell of a lot better to go 5-1 with the pitching match ups coming. If this team hits it's going to happen

Are you also predicting the division tie breaker?

if they throw verlander yes. Fur it won't come down to a tie breaker. That bullpen is just awful

is the rotation paying you to say that?

being in the pocket of BIG ROTATION has got to be dizzying

[Cartierfor3]

I get a small stipend but that's beside the point

[_33]

I want the division.  Give me the division.

[ChiComCat]

I want the division.  Give me the division.

Yea, eff that one game wild card bullshit

get it? *sigh*, @spracne get in here

[kso_FAN]

We all want the division and that's absolutely the goal*.

*But I'll take ANY postseason at this time in my life as a Royals fan.

[Cartierfor3]

I'm happy, no complaints, as long as we get 1 postseason game at the K. Just 1. We make it to the WC and its at home, and we lose to the A's, I'm content. We make to the division series, and get swept, but Game 3 is at our house, I'm content. We go on the road and lose to the A's in a WC game in Oakland, I'm not satisfied. I want a home game. Just once.

my favorite is mr. cupinpants on the right.

His hands are freed up for unlimited high five capabilities

NO WAY I am content with losing a wildcard game.  NO WAY.

"Post season" does not count unless you play at least 3 games.

I'm with you Pete.  If we lose a Wildcard game, I will not feel like we broke the streak.
