I can't find any news on it. The only articles out there are how he made his retirement official yesterday.

WTF? I just hear them talking on the game broadcast last night that he was retiring.

Man, I miss the days of him, Denny Matthews and Denny Trease.

RIP, Fred.

This is terribly sad for me. The voices of Fred and Denny was the last things I heard nearly every summer night when I was a kid. My folks would let me listen to the Royals games on the radio in bed. It was a great honor to listen to them as a team. Good Bye Fred White, I only got to met you once but you went out of your way to talk to me and it will never be forgotten.

Very sad news, RIP Fred.

dang. Hosmer has been a bust and now bubba

Looking at the box score this kind of stood out

Our 1st baseman has a higher obp than slugging percentage right now
.324 > .323

that's uh .. something else. At least Hos'll take a walk

Guess who's leading the AL in defensive WAR (1.0)?

Elliott Johnson.

funny. He's actually hitting surprisingly well also although in a small sample size

Last nite, Sweeney was on the broadcast. Said Hosmer has "been swinging great." Then he said Moose is "starting to heat up"


I guess an OPS of about 650 for a 1B is swinging great, and a 1-23 slump for Moose is "starting to heat up". I wonder if he's seen us play this year or not, I doubt it.

"I think his foot got stuck in the wall when he jumped," right fielder Lorenzo Cain said. "Hopefully, he's OK because we definitely need him out there."

-- Lorenzo Cain, on Dyson's ankle sprain.

Why, Zo? When Francoeur is available, who needs Dyson?

Said no one not named "Francoeur" ever.
