His era for April was elevated due to the one relief appearance. He gave up one run in each of his first two starts. I suggest you look it up before you post it.

I did, and I suspect I did the same thing you did when you first posted by not realizing the first one wasn't actually a start. I didn't try to do a quick edit though, and admitted to my mistake (and then try to call out others for not looking it up) :D

My edit consisted of changing my post from nine start to eight. Your statement of "His first five start were awful" was just wrong. Even if you count the relieve appearance, he gave up one run in his 2nd and 3rd appearance (1st and 2nd starts).

Right... over his first five appearances, he had an ERA of 6.26... That's awful.

Be nice to see Almonte put it together.

I agree. Junis had a decent start. If Almonte is decent, you can kind of see the 2018 rotation coming together.

For sure. This organization really needs a young guy or two to develop enough to stick at the big league level in the rotation.

He is cost-controlled for four years and possesses a skill the Royals have struggled to develop -- raw power -- a commodity that is expensive to acquire on the open market. That's worth taking a flyer on.

Pointless to discuss this. People hate his first few weeks. I'm old enough to remember Jermaine Dye's start and fans calling into Don Fortune wanting him gone

Don't even need to go back that far.

Alex Gordon.

People somehow forget that it takes most players years to figure it out at the MLB level.

Moose

People forget Moose was sent down the 1st year we went to the WS. He struggled to hit .200 that year and Ned was widely ridiculed the next year for trying to hit him 2nd.

Prison Bitch 05-24-2017 09:34 PM

Alex .179
Alshittys .180


Who ya got for higher avg at the end?

WhawhaWhat 05-24-2017 09:37 PM

Perhaps we should figure out how much a "point" costs for each of those players.. $10.5M for the .180 guy, $72M for the .179 guy.

We need both of them for defense, but wow, these guys should take a batting lesson!
