2014 Kansas City Royals ongoing thread...

[Fountain City Blues]

I think our roster is pretty much set unless we get creative and move Davis and Hoch for another Rotation arm.

Rumor is that the Royals want Hochevar to start again...


As with RR, my reaction was this

that rumor has been around for a bit and it would be a disaster if Luke or Davis see the rotation ever again, would just be taking the steps backword that may cause me to burn one of my Royals hats and my Hochaver Jersey (kidding I do not have a Hochaver jersey, Perez is it for me and my man crushes)

Well, if it happens, it is probably just for a month to make sure Ventura doesn't get Super 2 status. But lol, Hochevar as a MRP or NOT AT ALL.

 

[da55bums]

screw that, they can go with a 4 man rotation for the first month...Hoch = RP ONLY, I just started to like the guy and he finally showed that he was good at something, no need to screw it up Yost.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Fuck this, sign Bruce Chen - ewwww.

hell Aaron Crow has a better shot at doing something as a starter, we know what Hoch and Davis can do...or just let the bull pen all get a few innings of work in every 5th day after Crow starts.

Aaron Crow has two pitches. He is a bust.

oh a huge bust but rather see Crow go 2 innings then give it to the bullpen over Hoch and Davis getting pummelled in the rotation.

It the first month of the season, the number 5 guy will get what 2 maybe 3 starts.

Pete Grathoff @pgrathoff Dayton Moore says #Royals have no plans for platoon at 3B, despite dealing for Danny Valencia: Royals dismiss idea of platoon at third base - KansasCity.com


... SMH, just when their moves were suggesting they would get a bit more creative in their roster construction. I call BS given that Velencia is a logical platoon partner, if they really thought everything was ok, they wouldn't have acquired him.

got one for you, my dad and I went in on a jersey for my brother, his first authenic jersey but we twisted it up....across the back the name is "Player to be named later" and the number 71, since non roster guys get the high numbers....most hilarous christmas present of the year at our christmas.

If you see at Royals stadium, yes thats my brother.

Just 5 days until the first ST games. Baseball is back! Job for the #5 starter will be the thing to watch for.

 

[da55bums]

best new name in MLB, Sugar Ray Marimon...

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Hopefully, some new posters roll around as the season starts.

 

[da55bums]

Infante already injured...hopefully 8 mil gets at least 100 games....

At the end of 2014...Emilo will have more games played and better stats...just watch this one.

 

[da55bums]

The bullpen is going to be average this year....going to need to score more runs or the ship is going to run aground

 

[BigRedMoe]

Gordo is starting to heat up.... hopefully. At least he got us out of the HR gutter. We need some production from Moose or he'll be joining the Storm Chasers in O.
Was at the game on Saturday. Chen looked great, but I can tell Wade Davis is going to piss me off this year.

 

[BigRedMoe]

Is there an echo in here?

Start a 3 game set with the lowly Astros tonight. Hope we don't break them out of their slump like we did the Twinks.... who we then get at home for 3. Maybe we can exact some revenge and make up some ground.

 

[BigRedMoe]

A road win... finally.

A road win... finally.

And.. there is road win #2. Will post more again since I have my personal life in order now.
