I'm not throwing in the towel just yet fellas.

Well, you should.

Those posts are not incompatible. And yes, I probably should throw in the towel, but I ain't.

Our injuries are killing us. Seeing Getz at leadoff again makes me want to strangle Yost. Dyson has a better BA against Verlander than Getz, a better OBP against Verlander than Getz, and is an overall better hitter than Getz. I just don't get it.

yeah, now its time for the bullpen to blow it.

I think we've got this. It sucks that we have to lead the next inning off with Getz, though.

HERRERA???????????????????????????????????????????????

Rage Against the McKee · « **Reply #6246 on:** August 16, 2013, 02:10:55 PM »

Why pull Duffy? What was his pitch count? Even worse, why play Herrera?

bones129 · « **Reply #6247 on:** August 16, 2013, 02:10:56 PM »

Anybody but Herrera. Damn.

Rany on the royals hot steak after the break:

Basically says offense got a Lil better, defense is awesome, the trade isn't worth it unless we make the playoffs this year, (although most royals fans will accept just being competitive) he doesn't think we'll make the playoffs.

Good job, Kelvin.
