shysocks Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 12:08 PM) Thanks Kap. Isn't there a Royals based site you could get all giddy with other Royals fans?

southsider2k5 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 JWagnerBlade @jwagnerblade 51m51 minutes ago Nathan threw basically at 88-89 mph w/ fastball, 85 w/ slider. No good swings against him. But on last pitch, grimmaced. #Tigers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 12:44 PM) Sarcasm. You just posted Paulo Orlando as a guy the Sox developed. You are so crazy about the Royals, and this guy's triples, you don't even realize he is a 30 year old rookie who is about to stumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said before, I lived in KC for ten of their worst years and empathized with their fans during a thirty year stretch of oblivion. But I can promise that you will never see me write a single line at a Royals' fan site, either. Edited April 22, 2015 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) I'm sure they'll have a convenient "snow delay" to wipe out his start now... Except it seems like Warren and the Yankees are determined to give all those runs right back. SIGH. Edited April 22, 2015 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's on your fantasy team or you're trying to negotiate his long-term deal in free agency? The Yankees, on paper, could have a really nice offense...but they're going to need full-health seasons from A-Rod, Beltran, Tex, McCann, Ellsbury, Headley, Gardner, etc. Edited April 23, 2015 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 It's a great day, Tigers and Royals both on the verge of losing. Sox to gain a game on both. Need 3/4 from KC this weekend to get back in this thing and also to get back to .500. Start the series with a win tomorrow to set the tone. KC was fortunate enough to miss our ace last time around but not this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) We miss Guthrie (only a 20% chance of that happening) and Bruce Chen is gone, so that's worth at least one win right there. KC 3-3 vs. the Twins, 8-1 against the rest of MLB (other loss was to OAK) Edited April 23, 2015 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, but the problem is that Nathan wasn't very good anymore. I know it makes their middle relief thinner, but they are a better team with Soria in the 9th than Nathan.

Closer to 18 months. So he's looking at a potential comeback at 42 years old after surgery. I could see someone giving him a minor league contract, but he's got to be done. He had a great career.

caulfield12 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Betances is very tough and maybe even better than advertised...you can certainly see why they were willing to let Robertson (who's been simply great for the Sox) go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
