True Blue Fans Rejoice.

I can't wait to Brett takes Moose and Hosmer to Chi-Chi's on Metcalf to hit on some Waitresses to get out of this slump.

I'm surprised they didn't hire three.

ANYONE GOT HAL MCRAE'S PHONE NUMBER?

Brett and Quirk hired as "hitting on" coaches.

Don't curr what you guys say...I'd love to see George as a manager. This just makes the transition from Ned to Brett that much easier. These guys will respond with him in the dugout every night...watch.

#Royals announce George Brett and Pedro Grifol will now serve as hitting coaches.



Who the hell is Pedro?

That can be a positive factor. Wonder how much Yost will defer to Brett. This undermines him in there, I think. If Brett says something contrary to what Yost does, who are the players going to listen to (easy call there).

If there's anybody in the org who can talk to a young player about struggling early, then making adjustments to fix it, it's Brett. My understanding of Lau's work with Brett has always been that he got him to calm down, simplify things, and stop overthinking everything.

That might be just what Mouse (SIC) and Hosmer need.

DePodesta strikes me as a baseball version of Pioli. Maybe that's not how it was but his phone doesn't seem to be ringing off the hook despite helping revolutionize baseball.

Guess it's fixed now.

Pedro Zamora like hitting.

They must have voted for Pedro.

Brett absolutely loves Francoeur.

Trying to renew my ticket package, THE LINE IS BUSY!

But it's not our decision. I don't think there is a competent soul in KC that wouldn't love to see that group buy the R's. But Glass ain't selling. He's making a killing.

He did, but IIRC he also tore down and rebuilt his swing. When Brett came up he was pretty much a straight up and down, bat held high, Carl Yaz kind of hitter. Lau got him to put the bat in the more horizontal launching position and shift his weight.
