Well, we all knew this day would come. And it has:

Wil Meyers hit his first career big league home run today. A grand slam.   :goodbyecruelworld:

Cain did a great job killing the 6th and 8th innings

Maybe Dyson's return has rendered Cain insecure about his position and distracts him, but I doubt it. Were I the GM, I'd move Frenchy 'way before Cain.

cain has sucked ass for a while now.  which makes sense, since he's 27 years old and only now getting a chance to play a full year in the majors.

Cain and Frenchy are certainly not All-Stars. That said, Cain has played 66 games and is hitting .262 with 3 homers and 30 RBI. Frenchy has played 56 games and has the same number of homers but 17 less RBI, and is hitting .212.

Cain's fielding percentage is .995, Frenchy's is .990. Little significant difference, but Frenchy has the better arm.

When all is said and done, I still see Moore moving Frenchy before Cain.

yeah. he is lorenzo cain and not torii hunter.

no matter how much people wanted the black guy outfielder in the midwest with a similar swing to be like the other black outfielder in the same division with a similar swing*


*somewhat similar, but mostly because they are both just black.

well yeah, he's better than frenchy.


if they can get 2-3 years of near league average cf out of him, they should be happy.

frenchy doesn't make many errors. probs cuz he's too damn slow to get to many balls. good grief.. comparing fielding percentages between a rf and a cf in the first place. i mean, my goodness..

also.. batting averages?? it's 2013 bro. stop looking at batting average as some end all be all here. anybody who knows anything about the great american game knows that batting average can gtfoomf. frenchy's obp is somewhere south of .260 and his ops is a staggering .584. his awfulness knows no bounds.

btw, was at the game today and noticed adam dunn is hitting like .138 and striking out 300 times this year, but the fool has 19 homers and an ops above .700. a guy hitting 1-something is more productive at the plate than the majority of the royals lineup. and that's where we are at folks.

Noted, j-dub, noted. I'll call George Brett in the morning and remind him that batting average doesn't matter.  :)

Herrera is awful.

& yet the Royals demoted Louis Coleman (pitched 4 scoreless appearances for the Royals this season & has pitched well in AAA) in favor of Herrera. That is why the Royals are never going to win because they make stupid moves with players they have. They are worried to send someone down because they are out of minor league options & they would have to clear through waviers.
