Even though I believe DM, there is no GM that is going to publicly say that they'd rather cheat than lose 100 games. Certainly not right now.

IMO, teams are now stupid if they don't cheat considering Manfred and the Players' Union aren't at all going to punish egregious behavior.

Patience is running out in SD’s fandom.
I remember the people on CP who thought Hosmer would be a superstar after the playoff run. Guess that held up well.

isn't bad at all. If Mondesi stays healthy, that could be a pretty dynamic grouping. Personally, I'd flop Merrifield and Mondesi and let Whit see more fastballs.

They need more from 1B, CF, and 2B (Nicky Lopez) offensively to be a legitimately good lineup, but 2/3 of the setup isn't bad.

They should be talking to the Dodgers about Joc Pederson. He would be a better option in CF than Merrifield, is still only 27, and swings left. If the Dodgers were ready to send him out for Luis Rengifio, the price tag on him isn't that high.

If they were willing to send $10 million with it, I'd bet they could get Pederson and may even a lower-level lotto ticket prospect from the Dodgers for Ian Kennedy.

^ This is the type of creative thing Mecca is asking for. I'd be all over it.

Pederson is a free agent after this season, but so is Kennedy. I'd consider Pederson a more tradeable commodity than Kennedy, generally.

If that were to happen:

Mondesi - SS
Merrifield - RF
Dozier - 3B
Pederson - CF
Soler - DH (know this is weird, but it stacks 3 good OBP guys right in front of him, all of whom can run)
Perez - C
Gordon - LF
O'Hearn/McBroom - 1B
Lopez - 2B

That's actually a pretty good lineup. You'd sit Pederson against lefties, and Perez probably gets some time at 1B instead of McBroom, especially against lefties.
I would love to get Joc Pederson but one big concern for the Royals would be his is a UFA after season ends. Guess you could flip him at the deadline though.

Yeah, but they totally apologized. How did people not see/appreciate how much they apologized? IT'S THE MEDIA'S FAULT!!!!1

Happy to see a lineup back in general. Glad baseball season is here and I'm ready for talk about games, pitching, hitting, fielding, etc. instead of all the cheating stuff.

Nice to see the Royals back in action, but I gotta admit I've got a pretty strong Chiefs hangover going right now. Gonna take some time for me to get back into baseball.

Agreed. Why is it 6-7 weeks long? 2 weeks. Just make it two weeks.
