The Royals

[Dugout DickStone]

probably not their fault with vinny out but damn, the at bats of guys like massey and isbel are just so pathetic.

Saw stat that basically said we went from pretty good to terrible at hitting with runners on as soon as Vinnie went out.

I will take no Isbel slander though. 

Isbel is a hole

Missing the playoffs would be a Ned Yost Milwaukee level fail

[Dugout DickStone]

this is true

nope. he's perfectly fine for an elite CF that bats 9th. Way bigger holes in other spots.

Royals missing the wildcard at this stage would be Ned Yost Milwaukee levels of meltdown.

We need to step back and view the seas in context of 2023

True, but they could also get a couple of hits and maybe score more than 2 runs a game and not absolutely choke a spot at the expanded playoffs that they had pretty much locked up last week.

The season isn't over.

For sure. They still have a very high % to make the playoffs and that is incredible based on expectations for this year. Hopefully this is just a fantastically timed slump and they will break out soon and heading into the WC round.

I haven't looked at roster construction lately, are we effectively returning everyone next year from this years team?

The one that's going to hurt is that Wacha has an opt out that I think he's expected to exercise to seek a more lucrative deal

This team is cooked

[wetwillie]

Steve Dave said it's a statistical impossibility to miss the WC so I'm not worried.

[Kat Kid]

Can't wait for the Tigers to eliminate the Royals in the playoffs.

[Stupid Fitz]

Got picked buy playoff tickets and i'm still rough ridin' doing it you guys.

[mocat]

looks like the team is getting their revenge for that stadium vote

[Stupid Fitz]

Tigers win again this afternoon. Tonight would be a good night for the bats to wake up.

[sys]

closest thing to winning a game without scoring as you can get.

[sys]

this losing not scoring streak is unreal.

Great job Erceg!
