It's a sentimental bet but he's having the best season of his career.
49 may be a tad ambitious but I legit think 40 is in play. And for a guy to hit 40 as mostly a catcher is beyond impressive. [Reply]

Just a few short years ago, 40 would have broken the Royals HR record. [Reply]
Salvador Perez hit two homers and singled tonight — the night that marked the 10-year anniversary of his debut. Asked him afterward what's behind his joy, and the way he plays the game. Here was his response: pic.twitter.com/vC4D7PYQJj

There is no proof. You don't luck into two straight World Series. Or Super Bowls. Or Stanley Cup finals or anything else. That's literally the end of the discussion. You can completely botch the years following a championship run, but you don't luck into championships. [Reply]

Has any other small market team won a World Series since Dayton Moore became GM?
Dayton Moore is one of the best and he also was a big part of the Royals outreach and things like Urban Youth Baseball Academy. The Royals have built up a lot of goodwill with player agents and college managers by paying minor leaguers during COVID.
Being a principled person pays off if you have good principles and treat people right.
If you had Dayton Moore's integrity, you should never post about the Royals until there is a change. [Reply]

Lol he hasn't learned anything. He's still ruining arms and playing shitty vets over young guys with tons of potential.
Dayton isn't even close to one of the best and I'm sure he's building lots of goodwill by not letting a young guy that is showing he may just be a part of our future, actually play. [Reply]

So what young guys are you saying will not get their chance?
Just like everyone here knows you do not have the integrity to stay uninterested even though you say you will be as long as Moore and Matheny keep their jobs, everybody knows that the prospects will get the opportunity.
This is not a playoff year, but the Royals are in good position to compete for playoffs for the next 5-6 years and possibly longer. [Reply]

His dont gaf, may be different than yours. But please go on and continue to express your thoughts on peoples integrity because you simply dont agree with them. Sounds very "progressive" of you. [Reply]
Is the plan with Singer just to continue to let him get bombed until he realizes that a third pitch is really important for a major league starter? [Reply]

Seems that way. Got a hardheaded manager, pitching coach and pitcher. Seems like a standoff at this point. [Reply]
