RV probably didn't want to set up KC for Tim Collins on Gilaspie-De Aza when you can't pinch hit for either of them today.

 

And 90% it will be DeAza raising his value and Viciedo's sinking, since he has already proven he can hit lefties consistently to a .326 career mark, but what's the value of one-dimensional platoon corner outfielders these days?

Probably because the Saturday day games between 12 and 6...that window is blocked for FOX, even if they're not running games nationally.

 

Or are they already this early in the season?

 

Looks like it, bummer, thanks for your help.

Got into Hosmer's kitchen there...nice pitch to tie him up.

 

 

At this point, not sure if we're cheering for a Danks trade to clear even more payroll or simply hoping he's the 2008-2010 version. With the premium on pitching, I'll take the later, until someone forces him out of the rotation.

 

 

 

Konerko 12/49 with 5 career homers against Chen.

Royals' scouting report on Nieto: MLB average at blocking pitches and throwing...scary to think about the hitting part.

 

Couldn't we have just brought back Corky Miller, lol?

 

Danks 6-0 lifetime against KC and 4-0 at Kauffman, something has to give.

Nieto has always been thought of as an offense first catcher.

But it's still the equivalent of Courtney Hawkins getting promoted to the majors in terms of competition level for him. That often works for elite pitchers, but almost never hitters.
