If I were gonna get in a fight with Bo ****ing Jackson, I would want to be armed - probably with something more than a knife.

Wait - we're 4 games back of the wild card spot and folks want to throw in the towel?

I'll say this, though: It wouldn't shock me if they pulled it off. And if they could stay mathematically alive going into the last week of the season (a la 2013), I won't be despondent. |

Nobody is saying that. Just that they need to get to around 90 wins which means they have to go 26-12 down the stretch. That going to be really tough especially with an offense that has been bad as the Royals has been at points this year.

Especially after having just won 8 in a row. Tough to hit a 34-12 stretch.

There's no doubt it's a uphill climb. There's just very little margin of error. Only thing I didn't like about that article is that the Orioles aren't on pace for 90 wins. They might get there, the Mariners might too, but that's all projection. As it stands today 88 or 89 wins might give you a shot. It certainly has the last two years.

Just win 8 more in a row and the picture gets a ton rosier.

Biggest issue is that the Red Sox and Jays are both on 92 win paces, so that squeezes you down to one spot that's in the 88-90 win range.
Logic would suggest one of those teams will separate and take the division. My money is on Boston. That really leaves you chasing just the one wildcard spot unless the second team plays at a much lower pace the rest of the way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Need to win tonight - it's our best pitching matchup of the series:
Ventura v Cashner The next two games look bad: Gee vs Fernandez Volquez vs Koehler......although, Eddi is due for a nice road win. He's carrying a 6.18 ERA in away games this year ![]()

I know Royals Review garners mixed feelings around here but there's a pretty good article over there(I don't know how to link articles or any of that shit)on who we need to root for over the next 6 weeks. It breaks down all the matchups for the teams we are chasing or close to like the Yankees. We're pretty much going to need to stay as hot as we've been plus have the Twins and the Rays play at least .500 ball to end the year. Gulp.
