It's hard to imagine someone being good enough at SS to displace Mondesi. [Reply]

I'll be happy if Witt makes the playoffs a handful of times. If you think about the 14-15 runs and how amazing they were given what all happened (the best bullpen ever, most of the big markets were down, etc,) gonna be tough to do that again. [Reply]

If there's anyone who knows losing, it's a Nebraska fan who loves to go hogging. [Reply]

Yeah that's a little too much I think. But overall it's good to be excited. Yes the MLB draft is more of a crapshoot, but even then the Royals universally made a good pick. They didn't go cheap, or do something off the wall. They took the guy who literally everyone believes is the 2nd best player in the draft, and a generational talent. If he doesn't make it, he doesn't make it, but they took their shot. [Reply]
Were you even alive for any of that? Do you remember any of it?
Oh yeah. I also remember when the Royals were really bad which they are now. We will see what life is like after Ned. The Matheny stuff is scary. [Reply]

Dayton needs gone.
Matheny is a total incompetent prick. If they made a move further with him, I'll quit this team until he's gone. [Reply]
