you know who's actually pretty darn good at catching and throwing and swinging a bat and other baseball type stuff that you guys probably wouldn't think is pretty good? me.

you probably don't even have to crouch. that's a major plus

cause here's the deal with me. you'd watch me hit a couple of balls and you'd be like wow daris isn't that bad of a hitter but i had no idea he was left handed and then i'd be like, yeah i'm not and then i'd pop over to the right side and rake just as hard. all day long too, you guys. all day.

Holland has a 1.00 ERA in 2015.

Soria's best ERA with KC: 1.60
Montgomery's best ERA with KC: 1.37
Quisenberry's best ERA with KC: 1.73

Everyone can shut up. There are problems with this team. Who pitches in the 8th and 9th are not one of them.

Holland only has 4 blown saves since May 6,2013.    And for the record, we won 3 of those 4 games. The Bulldog is just nails.  Love him
Only one we lost was the SD game last May (6-5 loss in 12).

Greg's control is a bit off. His struggling is obvious. That said, he showed guts tonight in telling Ned he could get the job done, even facing two IP's, which he typically does not do. And Ned showed guts in trusting Greg. It worked out. That's Royals baseball right now.

Hey stat studs, what is the Royals' record when Hosmer, Moose, and Alex homer in the same game? Seems like 3 studs homering in the same game would probably guarantee a win, but it probably hasn't happened before.

the human being list is different from the broadcast list. phys is pretty GD bad at broadcasting, despite being a native KC'r and KSU'r and likely great human IRL. in fact if i had to guess, i bet Denny is the worst human IRL

I bet Ryan is very miserable to be around IRL, but he's good at his job.

Phys does better on the radio than he does on TV with Hud. It's strange since they've worked together so long. Ryan and Hud are great together because they cancel each other out. It's like watching a buddy cop TV show with a straight laced, by the book old guy (Ryan) paired with a young hot shot, life of the party cop (Hud).

Quote from: comment section

Well a friend of mine named Jeff Goldberg wrote that song

He said it was the perfect KC Royals love song

I wrote him back a letter and said it was not the perfect KC Royals love song

Because he hadn't said anything at all about unfulfilled promises,

Doubt it has happened. When any 2 Royals homer, I know our record is really good, but that's hard to research what that record is
