  1. if they win the series, i think they will ride with what they have and let Shields walk. If they come up short in the series, they may make some moves.
  2. Ditto. If anyone wants to discuss politics, they can visit my Facebook for an education. . It won't be a debate. They can try to debate if they don't mind losing every argument, but I can guarantee an education. Lol!
  3. Everything is falling their way like it did for the 2013 Red Sox. And I think the 2013 Red Sox had more talent. I can see the Royals being a 4th place team next season . Guthrie is mediocre and they are getting wonderful production from him in the post season. A bullpen doesn't mean much if your starter can't give you 5 or 6 strong innings. Next season without Shields they and the good fortune of fate they will drop like a stone even if they put Ozzie Smith at all 8 positions.
  4. it looks like he is wearing a funny nose and eyeglasses.
  5. lol! I will not even wait that long. Maddon is overrated in my opinion. He thinks he is a genius manager with his shifts and 5 infielder maneuvers, but he is no genius. A genius doesn't submit a lineup card with 2 third basemen losing his DH for the game. I don't want him. No manager is worth big bucks.
  6. The Royals are getting great pitching from very mediocre pitchers. Things are breaking their way. It looks like it is their year, and I am happy for them, but they are not very good.
  7. Hey SCM stay alert and safe. These radical bastards are rumored to be targeting law enforcement and military personnel.
  8. Lol! Agreed.
  9. I didn't look at the link. I am testing my memory. Was it Pedro's one-hitter with 17 k's against the Yankees -- probably the most dominating performance that I have seen.
  10. Also, relievers will not get it done for a stud like Stanton.
  11. The Cubs are stocked with blue chip prospects who are ready to make the jump to the pros. Our best prospects -- Bradley, Middlebrooks and XB all are devalued. Bradley and WMB have no value. X's value has been greatly discounted. We don't have any other major league ready blue chip prospects other than Betts. We are not going to get Stanton for XB, Betts and a collection of guys who are 2 to 3 years away from the majors. We don't have the chips. They held the chips too long and they turned into horse chips.
  12. lol!!! Ooops. But he would be a helluva a hitting catcher!
  13. I would cough up whatever it takes to get Stanton. I don't think we have enough talent in our system to get him if we let the Marlins give us a list.
  14. That Smoltz start was a horror show.
  15. MLB rosters are too heavy with 12 pitchers to have room for a defensive specialist outfielder.
  16. it's really a tough call in this series. No one put the team on his back and carried them to victory. I think a good argument can be made for Holland. These games were so tight with no room for error.
  17. I am so happy that Showalter went down without a victory.
  18. It is a best of 7.
  19. there is no way he makes the opening day roster unless the entire starting outfield is on the DL. He needs to learn to hit. He will not get enough ABs in spring training toprove himself and win a job.
  20. he'll get less than 100 ABs in the OF in 2015.
  21. The one plus about it is that it makes it easier to get tickets when your team isn't playing great.
  22. Lol! Very funny. I hate to break the news to you but you are part of the same dying breed.
  23. MLB needs to understand that we are a dying breed of fan. We just like watching baseball. They need to cultivate that with younger generations. Instead, they go for cheesy distractions at games like loud music, sausage races, and too much other nonsense. Bring back infield practice. Have the home team take batting practice after the visitors so kids can see their hero's. And stop all the loud blaring so kids can hear the sounds of the game and their dads can teach them about the game without having to scream over the blare. It is a beautiful game, but it is lost in swirling noise and distracting confusion.
  24. It's a shame that no one is watching these games. Watching the Royals make the most of this long awaited opportunity is fun to see.
  25. Pal should thank Beckett for eliminating fried chicken from his diet.
