kc has 3 starters down right now.

blanton was the guy that LAA released in 2013 even though they still owed him $8 mill. that's how bad he was. he was out all of last year, and came back the hard way through the minors, made the KC pen in may, and is now a starter again.

Ya someone tweeted last week the Royals current 5 man rotation and it was a bunch of no-names and has-beens. It is amazing they are where they are.

Yea looks like they make up for it with a balanced lineup, solid bullpen and an elite defense. I don't think the M's hitters can touch their pen so its important for them to handle the mediocre starters.

Ugh, I always coach my girls on not throwing behind the runner... A. Jackson had no shot at getting the guy out at home, allowing the guy on 1st to advance to 2nd... Base hit scored him... Fundamental errors...

I don't think I have ever seen a team with such poor common baseball sense and it bites them every damn time. Free outs, free bases and free runs every night. Its beyond pathetic.

Who should be our #2 hitter Every day? S. Smith or A. Jackson?

I'm afraid to say it but I think we're seeing Felix on his wrong side of his peak... Seems like it's not a guarantee anymore go keep teams under 2 runs... Sad but it was bound to happen... He's not as dominant...

Royals already have 3 runs, Felix has spent 44 pitches on 6 outs with runners on 1st and 2nd. I put our probability of winning this game at 20%. I give us a chance simply because the Mariners hitters have hit 3 balls to the warning track not counting Cano's HR.

Take away his starts against the Astros and Yankees and he has a sub 2 ERA.

Looks like Morales still has a little Mariner in him.

They only have one flipping hit against freaking Joe Blanton... Embarrassing...

it's sad, but i'm at a point where i don't even care about the m's winning or losing anymore because i can't imagine them doing anything this season.

i'm actually a little happy for blanton. he fucked over the angels (always good in my book), and came back to become a MLB pitcher the hard way. that's pretty cool. if i were a kc fan, i would think it's even cooler.

Felixs motion just looks off. Not sure if it's the ankle or what.

seriously though, has he ever com up in big games? He is great, probably the best, in games that don't fucking matter. Throw him into a game that's important and he seems to be mediocre at best, I'm probably wrong about this but I just can't get that out of mind with him...
