I really was hoping the Houston series was a sign of life/the team waking up. That has turned sour in a hurry.

Offense has to do more. If Cain, Hosmer and Gordon don't produce, this offense probably isn't good enough.

They're pressing. Still a lot of season left, but they need to turn it pretty damn quick or they're going to get buried in the standings.

Gordon's contract is like an albatross around the Royals neck.

Hosmer: if he starts hitting, might be able to get a good prospect (top 40-50 type) as the centerpiece, with a couple of additional pieces.

Would expect a healthy Cain to return a similar haul, as well as Moustakas.

Escobar really doesn't have any trade value of note. His defense and offense have both regressed significantly.

9 down. 16 more to go in April.

I'll guess a 9-16 record at end of month.

We can see now why the projections hated this team

Lol, right?

Maybe those idiots knew what they were talking about all along.

But it is too early for that...for now.

I'd like to trade Esky for a lottery ticket. Let Whit and Mondesi start everyday.

He's dealing with some nerve issues I believe. I can't think of the name of the diagnosis though.

Thoracic outlet syndrome. Same thing Chris Young had a couple of years before he joined the Royals.

I hate Alex Gordon and Alex Smith. Eff anyone named Alex for that matter.

I was at Game 1 of the WS in 2015. I could never hate Alex Gordon.

GMDM has done a poor job of putting together this atrocious bullpen. Coulple that with no hitting from Cain, Homer, Moss and even Moustakis. A recipe for 100 losses.

And perfect timing for a #1 overall pick, 3 to 4 top prospects for our departing trade pieces, and restart the rebuild.

Ain't getting "3-4 top prospects" for these guys.

The dude's only statistically been our fourth best player of all time. Screw him, right?
