losing baseball isn't fun. I've played plenty of losing baseball and it sucks crap. also watching it sucks crap. also hearing about it the next morning. all of it does.

September will be fun. We won't be NATIONALLY relevant but maybe Hunter or Bubba makes their debut!

A Vargas comeback start?

Maybe Alex has a good month and gives us hope for him having a bounce back year next year!

Cain could hit for the cycle in a game!

A Duffy no-hitter!

Really anything is possible guys!

yeah once you all realize we're out of the race, there are a lot of other interesting things to pay attention to. I mean we all are going to watch every KSU cats football game for crying out loud

NL Playoffs should be a real HOOT also. To me, life is still pretty great

It will be fun listening to everyone talk about "Who is this year's Royals?" all throughout the playoffs.

you guys wanna know something bonkers? I was born in 83, so let's say I became a Royals fan in 88. This is still like a top 5 season for me as a fan

Does Bubba come up on the 40 man roster?

It's top 3, really. The strike year is 4th place.

Yeah, not sure how anyone can continue to be a royals fan if they are going to suck and be slow and have Alex gordon on the team

Guys, Bubba is barely considered a top 30 prospect for us anymore. He has been that bad this year

mocat · « **Reply #65190 on:** July 29, 2016, 02:05:21 PM »

he will continue to be absolutely horrendous until he gets rid of the absolutely horrendous goatee

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #65191 on:** July 29, 2016, 02:05:49 PM »

The royals have always tried to force their top round picks into the majors. They have a guilty conscious on these contracts. See Colon. He might be bad, but that doesn't mean they won't call him up.

wetwillie · « **Reply #65192 on:** July 29, 2016, 02:06:09 PM »

gore will be on the 40 man roster and be used a crap ton, I will look forward to that.

Cartierfor3 · « **Reply #65193 on:** July 29, 2016, 02:06:54 PM »

i mean, we JUST got Mondesi up to the show, that's reason enough to tune in IMO

lol wut? they have now put Colon behind Infante, Whit, and Mondesi this year alone.

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #65196 on:** July 29, 2016, 02:09:15 PM »

Whit is like the first guy they've brought up that was a low draft pick.

My first impression is that he has a ways to go at the plate

WC more high round picks than low round picks are gonna make the majors, in most cities.

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #65199 on:** July 29, 2016, 02:12:28 PM »

Because of contracts, but yeah. BTW, Bubba's name is really Derek.
