Need 88 wins and close to the division title. We really need playoffs the next two years, but I think I'd be okay if we were really close this year and won next year. Would love if we made a play for Dickey somehow, or signed another outfielder.

Can't give up top prospects to be merely competitive.

It would be way super awesome if the Royals were good and made a push at the playoffs

Yeah, if they can play five hundred or above the first half, that momentum will carry through the end just like 04

Considering we started last season 3-14, I see us getting 85. AT THE MINIMUM I'll fill in the blanks later regarding playoffs; don't know what the rest of the division is up to.

It's not worth it to do this to yourselves anymore. We'll start out ok but be out of the race by mid-June like always

Weird contract deal. Minor league contract until a spot is available on the 40 man. Miguel says he's already been assured of a major league roster spot as well, at 2B/utility. I wonder what that means for Gio?

I really haven't been all that impressed with what I've seen of Gio.

bones129 · « **Reply #2421 on:** December 31, 2012, 09:21:15 PM »

Gio shows glimmers of hope at the plate but the Royals have never been satisfied with his glove.

I get that Gio hasn't show a ton yet but I like him for some reason. If he could just improve to a decent fielder, I think he will be able to contribute enough at the plate to make him worthwhile.

I think he also needs to get better at the plate if he is only going to be a decent fielder.
