I don't care if Billy is hitting Billy. That's nice and all, but we need Doubles Billy more than anything. Otherwise, he's worthless singles Billy.

I refer to singles billy as inside the park billy because for him to score from first the batter will be pushing his fat ass across the plate.

The Royals need the doubles machines that were Alex Gordon and Billy Butler to come back, neither has been the same in over a season

Thus far, he's been Doubles Play Billy.

What is it with Gordon and the broken bats?

In case anyone is wondering how Paulino pitched tonight since our resident White Sox fan hasn't posted in here in a while. 3.2IP 13H 10R 10ER 3BB. (I only looked it up because Rany mentioned it on twitter)

What's going on with Zimmer?

He's a natural inside out swinger and when guys look to go opposite field they are susceptible to being busted inside. Would like to see him sacrifice some hits (like the bloop double on the LF line earlier tonight) and letting his natural power work by pulling it more even if he makes a few more outs

I don't believe he has started throwing yet, but I am not the most knowledgeable poster on the subject.

Yeesh

Dont stronger guys tend to break more bats also?

Yes.

Ouch. Definitely not one to write home about there.

Yeah Paulino might get moved out of the rotation after that. He had a good opener, but he's been destroyed his last three starts. 13 IP, 22 ER, 28 H, 10 BB, 8 K.
