he's the manager, the BUCK stops with him.  not hitting?  it's his fault.  not pitching?  it's his fault. not winning?  like i always say, the BUCK stops with ned.  it's his fault.

I'd appreciate it if he rested Salvy since we have like a 15% chance of winning tonight

resting Salvy would certainly be forfeiting, not sure what wetwillie was talking about

If I were trying to win I don't think I would play colon at 2nd base or bat him 2nd.

Escobar can't hit

did he forget how to hit right after his 14-game hitting streak?

that hitting streak saved his season from being historically bad, moving it in to the category of merely terrible

Esky is streaky. He was that way last year too.
.214 in April
.309 in May
11-66 (.167) the first half of June
22-64 (.344) on hit streak and then last night

Moose is hurt, Yordano is crazy, Alex is over the hill, Cain is hurt, Hos will be gone in FA soon, Escobar can't hit, and now Wade to the DL

lots of people think ventura is also hurt (maybe instead of crazy) if that makes you feel any better.

Well, he can't always be hurt. :frown:

yeah, not always.  just this season.

dayton moore needs to have his head checked if he thought this roster had a chance of competing this season

Did anyone expect anything other than a home run fest with Young on the mound?  Four homers so far, three this inning.  What the hell!

I think Young forgot he was supposed to do 6 innings of three run ball not 3 innings of 6 run ball.

U could add Bryce Harper and Mike Trout to tonight's lineup and we'd still lose

Relying on guys like Young to be good again is the reality of trading young arms for Johnny and Zobrist.

It was worth it.

I'm still hopeful we can stay in the wildcard mix.

Brooks Pounders is a fatass, I'm not sure how he found his way onto this royals team.

Is Alex ever going to not suck?  He's actually getting worse
