And I don’t care.

If you’re losing 90+, to me there’s no point in trying to be a little less bad. Just embrace the suck.

Being two games worse in 2009 would have meant the Royals were in position to take Manny Machado the following draft. Would having a 100-loss season instead of a 98-loss season matter now? As much as it would have mattered to draft a plus-d, plus bat SS and plug that player into the rest of the position players?
