The "Royals" consider winning as a small bonus. It sucks but isn't going to change.

What are you talking about? And why are "Royals" in "quotes"?

Getz gets thrown out trying to steal 2nd base to end the game (he was the tying run & the batter was potentially the winning run). Great job Getz!

Yep. Getz probably had a CFB game he was anxious to watch so he made sure the Royals' game ended on time.

At this point, the second best thing that can happen to the Royals is that they lose a crapload of games, so as to justify getting rid of Moore and Yost.

The best thing that could happen is that Glass sells the team to people who care about winning and championships.

We've been hoping for this for the past 10 years.

i love it when the royals steal bases.  i'd be happy if they resigned bonifacio at second for that reason alone.

Royals now 5 back in the WC race. Improbable...but not impossible. By the end of the week, we'll know for sure.

Would be nice.  However, we suck at like 4 spots. He happens to be decent at all of them.

i'm not sure he's really decent.  his career stats are pretty poor.  i'm sure he's fast, though.  good enough for me.

He's welcome to stay as long as he isn't the starting 2nd baseman next year.

Yeah, a guy like Bonifacio would be pretty valuable to have as a utility guy who spells other players on their days off and pinch runs for Billy late in games. I can't get excited about the prospect of him being an everyday starter at any position, though.

eff, ink the dude to a multi year deal.  Not too many people can play as many positions as he can.  I'm totally cool with him as a utility guy who gets a decent amount of starts at various positions and comes off the bench the other games.  At the very least, his worth as a late inning PR or defensive replacement is very useful.
