Also, pay attention to what the Rays are doing. They started Sergio Romo today, the relief pitcher. He pitched the 1st inning against the top of the Angels lineup, struck them all out, then turned the game over to the "starter" for the 2nd inning. It worked so well they're going to do it again today, so Romo will start two days in a row. It guarantees one of your best relievers faces the big bats on top of the order.

People keep saying this “he clearly looks unhealthy..” I don’t see it. He clearly sucks ass right now, and he’s battling himself on the mound. That’s what I clearly see. If he were injured the Royals would be shutting him down immediately. They have a lot invested into him. They aren’t going to keep running him out there in a season like this, just because. He’s got lots of talent, but he’s always been a head case. He’s got to get right in the head before he can get right on the mound, IMO

I just watched the video of his post game that is on the Royals site. Pretty good. Talks about the “phantom DL stint”. Lol. So many on CP were just flat convinced that he was injured. No, he’s not physically injured. He’s just a really shitty starting pitcher right now. He should be relegated to the pen until he gets his head right. It wouldn’t be the first time the Royals had to do this with Duffy.

TOS is looking like a career killer these days. Still hopeful he can be an exception but man, track record is really bad at present. Quote:
Interesting. His velocity was down, but maybe it’s mechanical. Also looks like he has ticked up in the past 2-3 starts. Quote:

So the Braves are in 1st place and need a 3rd baseman. Let's make it happen, GMDM.

They do have a 3B prospect sitting at AAA right now. That might be Dayton's biggest obstacle depending on what the Braves are thinking about him. |

Hey that's not nice. I have a ton of respect for you. Don't take my criticism of Dayton Moore so personal. The guy had so many years of suck and had a ton of high draft picks. He lucked into one of the best bullpens in history. Without that bullpen we don't have 2 WS appearances and 1 championship. The guy is loyal to a fault holding on to trash players for way too long. Picking Almonte over Manaea. Also I'm just throwing this out here but can anyone guarantee that we needed to trade for Cueto and Zobrist? Do we not win a world series if we don't have them? Honestly I'm glad we did it. I cried after they won the World Series, but I don't give much credit to DM or Yost for those wins.
I'm not looking to get people all over my ass with this post either since I'm sure it will be very unpopular |

Let's trade Moose for that 3B prospect lol. Then they don't have to worry about Moose taking his playing time.
