the royals can do what the want, of course, but i think it'd be neat to sweep the guardians.

one royal i'm not a big fan of is this frazier fellow.  i don't like his face, i don't like his body and i don't like how he plays baseball.

quatraro always tries to ride the starter too long.  get the six and get him out, imo.

The Royals guys on Twitter have mentioned how they don't have an off day until September 12th so that will probably tax the bullpen guys a fair amount. Not to mention Lorenzen leaving early yesterday.

Now seeing mentions in my feed about the bullpen being taxed due to the double header and four game series, too.

3 of 4 is good, but man, they just gave that game away.

And I think one of the starters left early due to muscle strain. It was going to be tough on them in additions to all that. But yeah, sucks to let that one go.

Ugh, broken thumb for Vinnie and done for the reg season. Hopefully Erceg didn't break a finger too. Unbelievable luck on a routine play. He lets that go, it's an easy step on 2nd to first double play. Instead it cost them the game, the regular season for Vinnie, and however much time he is out for trying to make a bare handed play with his pitching hand. I know it's just a quick reaction, but he has to pull that hand down. This sucks.

Good grief lay off him. He's been lights out and even on Wednesday he was just giving up fluke hits with soft contact. It was a fluke play. Yeah it was unfortunate but it's a reaction play and he's trying to make an out. It's not like some bonehead play where he forgot how many outs or missed a base or something.

We can still win the division and make a run. Play Salvy at 1st 2/3rds of the games and save his knees for October, hope that DeJong has some timely bombs, trust the starters to keep the team in every game.

It sucks but I'm not throwing in the towel or blaming a player who tried to make a play. Sheesh.

I’ve seen fun names like Joey Votto and Brandon Belt tossed out there as possible Vinny replacements. Probably unlikely but still kind of fun.

They'd be better off promoting Caglianone than either of these washed up bums

Meh, I think he had enough time to think and not try to barehand it. I thought so watching it live and going back and watching it again.

zero chance of this. I wouldn't hate either of the above. They can't hit anymore obv, but can work a count and maybe get on base. Plus they are both awesome dudes that would be great in the clubhouse.
