How will last night's playoff game impact the franchise moving forward?
It feels like we've turned a corner... It feels like we've relinquished the lovable loser persona.

Will more free agents want to come to KC, now? Will they eliminate their no-trade clauses to KC?

How do you think this will impact the franchise moving forward?

Says the fan with the $2.5 BILLION TV contract and $226 million payroll. It is the right way to build a franchise unless you have a $2 billion contract. The only proven way. You don't like it because its the Cardinals, fine and dandy. Still doesn't make it true.

And BTW you pal. I've been a loud voice in support of Royals fans on this board for years.

Draft and develop players is still the way to go. Even the Yankees biggest stars were home grown talent.

Every baseball thread you come in and take a shit. Why don't you just knock it off for a change?

I'm done with you.

If he can't re-sign with the Royals, it would be cool to see that. What a rotation, especially in that ballpark. They would be dominating the NL for years.

Do us all a favor Mr. Freidman. Save your class on baseball economic theory for the kids at St. Pete's elementary school. What you know about economics and baseball would fit on the head of a pin.

The St. Louis way. Give Pujols all the Roids he needs and lie about his age constantly.

In 2013 St. Louis had the 8th highest revenue in all of baseball, and yet before tv revenue sharing had the second lowest TV deal.

ITS ALL ABOUT THE TV CONTRACTS! ITS NOT FAIR! GATE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT!

All I was saying was that unless you have a $2 BILLION cable TV contract, draft and develop players is the only way to achieve long term success in the current baseball environment.

I meant no offense to Royals fans. Sorry if I offended. I will bow out of this thread now.

David Glass now knows that he can cut payroll and hang up banners for this year, and cut scouting, and make sure that High Def highlights are played up on the jumbo tron forever and people will come out and make him rich.

When I was a kid, the term was called one of two things:

The Oriole way - players were taught and practiced fundamentals the same way in all stops in the minors all the way to the bigs.

The Dodger Way. See above.

The Royals franchise was built on the Dodger model. And was quite successful. But losing E.K. and Fogelman going bankrupt killed the franchise. That left us with Glass who further killed the franchise. Until Moore got real commitment from Glass this was going to continue as a train wreck.

But we already know that story.

Thankfully, we have a Cardinal blueprint to follow now. Damn, that makes me feel good about the future. Lucky us.

It'll keep the suckers coming while he goes bargain basement again.

Drafting and home-grown talent is always Plan A. Plan B is filling in the holes with a star free agent and some solid ones where needed.
In the Kauffman/pre-huge cable TV deal days, the Royals could reasonably afford to do this and keep up with the Yankees, etc.
Now, they can't. It's pretty simple, really.

I sure am glad our benevolent overlords decided to come by and pass us the secret of baseball success. They are so kind to we peasants.
