Go ahead and pencil in the same record as last year. Same ****ing team so far as I can tell.

Abortion is certainly the right word.

I hate being a sourpuss fan, but the Royals really have a way of pissing in your cereal early. I think the thing that drives me the most crazy is letting Bonifacio go for no reason. Having him would allow us to bench or demote Moose, stick Valencia at 3rd, and have a credible 2B in Infante's absence. The move made no sense at the time and only looks worse now.

It also created a real roster construction problem in that it became extremely hard to carry 12 pitchers and a utility infielder when you're carrying 5 OF and have two 1B/DH only guys. Throw in a backup catcher, and you've spent 21 of your 25 roster spots on P, OF, C, 1B and DH. Leaves you with 3 IF starters and one reserve IF.

Would have been better off carrying Bonifacio instead of Dyson or Valencia, honestly.

I beat the Boni over Dyson drum pretty hard in Jan. and Feb. This roster mess is Dayton Moore's creation.

It's very hard to carry 5 true OF and make a roster work when you also have two 1B/DH only types on your squad.

They have a decent UTIL infielder on the roster, the 2B probably makes the play on Loney's RBI single in the 9th.

Why did we let Boni go again?

Too much of this...

For someone they apparently were concerned would pout in a backup role.

There's no way for us to know if Bonifacio truly was going to be a malcontent if relegated to a backup role, but considering the injury history of Cain and Infante and Moustakas's complete ineptness against LHP (and in general), it should have been pretty easy to sell Boni on the idea of getting two starts a week in the OF and 2-3 starts a week at 2B/3B.

Is there a history of that with Bonifacio? I seriously don't know.

Wouldn't Boni be starting in Infante's absence ?
