sox and kc bench clearer

[broncosmitty]

Jordan's gone. they signed john to a long term deal and he has never been the same since shoulder surgery. he is actually the highest paid player on their roster

Well, that's good Jordan is gone.

Feel your pain on high paid starters that havent been the same. (StupidFuckingKateUpton...)

One year ago I was completely indifferent to the Royals. Last fall, like many people, I was pulling for them in the playoffs given how long it had been since they had gone, and given that it was exciting to watch a team affect games so much with good baserunning. Three weeks into this season, however, my view has become that a) their manager, b) many of their players, and c) many of their ridiculously homerish fans are total dicks. I am now pulling for every other team in that division. I cannot imagine I'm alone in this reaction.

I've been to games at the K and tend to pull for KC and probably will continue to do so.

That said, I was thoroughly unimpressed with Ned Yost managing the World Series.

 

[broncosmitty]

Yep

Beat up a senior citizen coach, then went after the black guy twice

Perfect fit for Chicago

Ned was not impressive stopping the guy. Collateral damage on that one. (But I did like how he drove his head into the dirt on the way down. That impressed me the most.)

because of facts that have not come out yet about tonight?

because they defended their teammate who had his leg slashed by Brett Lawrie on a force play at 2b?

Verlander is still fun to watch and very well might rebound big.

I am sure you would have just stood there and let Eaton cuss you out.

i cheered for them most of the season last yr. they are fun to watch. I still like the majority of their team

Managers are pretty overrated, but they look a little bit smarter when the roster earns a trip to the WS.

I doubt Ventura is man enough to settle his beef in parking lot with one of those opposing players that he has run his mouth with. He is the common denominator in these brawls. Put him back on the boat.

Ned Yost is a fucking awful manager. He's terrible. If he weren't such a moron KC would have won the division by 3 games last year.

But I still like the Royals and root for them in general. I'm rooting for Morales to get another out here and push it to the 13th.

I missed that.

I'm sure I'll see a replay or two tomorrow

Ned looked scared shitless that entire series. I second-guessed virtually every decision he made (or didn't make). I thought the Series was their's to lose and Ned lost it. Him and James Shields, that is.

 

[broncosmitty]

Sure hope he rebounds!

I don't doubt his desire to return to form as much as possible. He's a fiery bastard. It'll be tough at 92-93 though.

There was only one brawl, and nobody knows who started it

We know who will get the biggest suspension, and he isnt a Royal

putting ventura in relief in the wild card game was quite the head scratcher

 

[broncosmitty]

It looked intentional to me. But I could be wrong.

I was pretty excited.

He's sure as hell going to miss that velocity.

 

[broncosmitty]

yeah.

I hated his lineups, his pinch running decisions, his decisions to run in stoopid situations (And constantly, which somehow worked in October.), but I appreciated him throwing away the division, don't get me wrong.

Clearly intentional.

My opinion of Samardzija is in the toilet now.

He played football at Notre Dame, I never liked the prick in the first place.
