Series Thread: Kansas City Royals vs Los Angeles Angels

Where are the Royals $$$ payroll wise?

Moneyball II coming spring 2015 to a theatre near you.

The crazy thing about last night is Holland didn't even arrive at the stadium until the 6th inning- he was in NC for the birth of his child the day before.

Can't even begin to tell you how excited I am that the Royals won last night. Winning game 1 on their turf changes everything.

Hamilton getting the start again in LF

I'd rather have a better defender in LF. May have made the difference last night regarding the Royals first two runs. It's not like Hamilton's bat added anything. He hasn't played in a month and you put him out there with a fly ball pitcher on the mound? You're better than that Scioscia.

Last time the Royals saw Shoemaker, they jumped quick on him before he could get to 0-2. Going to be interesting to see what Shoemaker changes.

Shoemaker was on fire the last month or so as the season ended, he scares me more than Weaver. Been a K machine in the 2nd half.

Lot of Ranger support coming KC's way. Far more deserving than LAA.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Apparently, per Yost, Kelvin Herrera could be available as soon as Sunday.

Shoe carried the Angels in long way in the second half but he hasn't pitched in a long time.

Ventura holding down a nail biter right now. What a game from both rookies so far.

So much for angels hitting being their strength.

It's the starting pitching.

 

[bksballer89]

Fucking idiot

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Idiotic baseball.

I don't give a shit if he's not a bunter. You BUNT.

Then the pinch runner doesn't know what he's doing.

Royals deserve this. They play smart.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Holy cow, what a double play!

 

[SeattleCoug]

What a dumb baserunning move. You are already in scoring position with the top of your lineup coming up. Credit Dyson with a good throw though

 

[bksballer89]

That was incredibly dumb. You do not go there unless you can easily get to 3rd. If it is going to be a bang-bang play do your team a favor and stay your ass at 2nd

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Trout, pujols, Kendrick.

If angels don't win it here. I think royals got this eventually(if they don't score in 9th themselves).

 

[SeattleCoug]

Gore Time!

 

[bksballer89]

Gore wasted no time
