You know when your team beats the ever living crap out of your opponent but the coach starts going off on minor details so there's some sort of "teaching moment"? Well here's mine for this thread.

I thought it was well established that there is no "my guy" with the Royals, they're all "our guys". So if everyone could stop calling my guy in here that would be great.
sweet. Rios is well covered then. :gocho:

Hate to break it to you wacky but Rio' has been my guy since he was a rookie in MLB the show 2008.

I am willing to share him with you and any other royals fan in this thread. #BeRoyal #1Royal

hdh may not match last year, but the bullpen overall may be better.  i mean frasor, hoch and young.  those guys are (or can be/have been sometimes) are good.  they didn't have that kind of quality depth last year.

i may be a complete weirdo but the #1 guy i am excited for who was not on the team last year is Hoch, and it's not even close.

Yes, and Frasor did an excellent job last night.

This. The depth of the bullpen is increadible. And HDH will still be really good even if they don't completely replicate last seasons numbers.

Hopefully all the bullpen guys do well, and the Royals can move a piece or two to for the post-season push.
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.

Quote
Royals: LF Alex Gordon, who has right wrist surgery in December, will likely be rested Thursday. Manager Ned Yost said Gordon experienced wrist soreness in spring training when he played a day game after a night game and "we sat him three days" after that. Yost said rookie OF Paulo Orlando would start in left.

 :dunno: being cautious I guess

I was thinking Colon might have got the start in place of Infante today.  Hopefully Infante can get it going.

My timehop showed a bunch of my tweets from two years ago when I was making fun of baseball fans. :frown:

Not to mention Madson and Morales, who have had success in the big leagues and are far better to whoever was the 7th, 8th guy out of the pen at any given time last year (Mariot, Casey Coleman, etc.)
