ChiefsPlanet - Royals 2013 Kansas City Royals Repository Thread

I think that OBP and ISO are the two most important stats for a hitter. One measures your ability to get on base, the other is your extra base power, which is rarely the result of luck the way that BABIP alone can be.

I agree with all of this.

2) And Oscar Taveras is more valuable than any two players in the entire Royals organization.

3) It's too bad your dad wasn't a better guru and missed your mom's stomach, hitting her beef flaps.

"beef flaps"

It's time to tell him to head to Omaha and become a starter or else he's gone. He's creating no value at the MLB level so why keep up this farce? Make him a starter or just pick up a reliever who can actually hit the strike zone.

I'm pretty sure, if it were up to you, the Royals major league team would only have around three actual players.

Hamas is the same idiot who tried to tell me STL isn't a better baseball market than KC. Seriously - he said that.

As people already pointed out in this thread, Gordon Hos Moose etc were monsters in the minors and in the case of Gordon (and Myers too), BB AMerica's top prospect. STL would trade Tavares for Gordon straight up this second and wouldn't bat an eye.

Gordon is going to have about 17 WAR in a three year stretch. Equal to Wainright & Molina.....More than Matt Holliday (13) or Beltran (11 WAR).

Uh oh.....Rany starting to write things comparing this Royals teams to the Blue Jays of the last 10-13 years. Never awful, but never quite can get over the hump either.... 79-85wins every season.

No, not this year. 79-81 would be my guess. They won't be able to beat Cleveland and Detroit.

If we were able to win 79-85 games the next 10 years this fanbase would be ecstatic. We have been so dreadful so long that it would be a huge achievement frankly.

YES, and then the Royals and Chiefs could be joined in eternal mediocrity.

Yea, agreed. It will be a blessing and a curse, because it will buy more time for DM. Will they be stagnant and just remain cool with winning 79-85 games every season, or will they do what it takes to get up into the 90 wins area?

79-85 will keep butts in seats.....but does Glass truly care about anything more than that?

Our rotation will be in shambles.
