**** The Official Royals vs. Nationals Game day Thread****
 

Game time 7:15p.m

Nasty nut chunneling his way to a Royals victory!

Ain't no quit in Nutterbutter.

big nasty kcorgasm

Keep Harper at bay. Win series. That simple

Harper is gonna be a free agent in a few years. Anyone wanna start a GoFundMe account to get him to KC? It's gonna take $400 million but if we start now we might make it lol.

Is this Harpers first appearance in KC ?

Yes i believe so keep him at gates for the whole series!

You forgot score some damned runs my friend.

Worked 5 hours this morning and then got called in for jury duty at 12:30. Took me 4 hours of being there but I got out of it. We win tonight because I won today.

FSGO says "Nationals @ Royals" - but it appears like they're showing STL and Philly. Anyone have a lead on this?

No, they came to town in 2013.

This is not a team you want to be issuing a lot of walks to.

And all our pitchers continue to walk a batter an inning.

Oh, yay. Two on for Harper.

A bag of dicks coming our way.

volquez seems off. not hitting his spots so far.

Well, he wasn't.

In two consecutive AB's, we see the importance of a well-located change-up.

I didn't realize Washington doesn't really have a great offense.

Great start.

Baseball is a frustrating sport.

****, looked like Paulo misplayed that.

Yeah that ball seemed catchable.

I might go to bed early(er) tonight if this keeps up.

Eddie looking shaky other than the Harper AB.

What a shit start. Leadoff walk scores...Orlando gets lost in RF...

Haha...Fever with a The Levee reference.

Further traumatized a few nurses/EMTs in that place late night.

I bet the "don't throw the ball down the middle on the first pitch of an AB to Escobar" adjustment was a very hard one for teams around baseball to make.

**** **** ****

Cuban Breakfast with Billy Butler power.

Damn Kauffman Stadium.

Damn you, Kauffman Stadium.

Warning track power.

good grief. i thought he crushed that.

Weak...he has had some real crap luck latelt

Just the way things are going right now.

**** YOU!

That Bud and Burger deal looks good.

Needed that.

Here we go Royals here we go!

Missed it. What's the deal?

Another easy inning. Let's get those bats going!

Good call

Umm...

that was dumb

Running into outs. Good stuff.

WTF Cain? You dumb ****!

Unreal

DFA everybody

Cain, you dumb ****.

2 outs, Morales batting....steal third?! WTF?!

A bud, a burger, and a game ticket for $35. Though the screen showed TWO buds and TWO burgers.

Seriously, WTF was he thinking? You're going to score anyway if Kendrys gets a base hit. There was nothing to be gained by attempting to steal there.

We have got to be the dumbest team in baseball....

Biggest difference between this year, so far, and last?



I legitimately feel like this game may be over already

Having a hard time moving on after that boneheaded decision.

Says the other 29 teams about the Royals.

Oh no, we suck again.

Exactly. WTF does he expect to gain out of that? It's just ****ing stupid.

Head-In-Ass syndrome has been a problem all season long thus far.

WTF Cain?!?! Did you get a lobotomy in the off season?? That's one of the dumbest f***ing things I've seen in a long time. He's scoring from second on almost any base hit, so why would you chance it there?!?

Dumbs**t.

i would put him on the bench for that.

Actually shows how little faith at least Lorenzo Cain has in his teammates ability to hit w RISP

Amazing how unfundamental we are right now. Been playing this game most of their lives.

So not only did you run yourself out of an inning...
You ran yourself out of a scoring chance AND you leave K-Mo to lead off the next inning...


:facepalm:

But it doesn't matter though. Stranded at 2nd or stranded at 3rd.

Now watch the 13th ranked, NL offense score this guy with 1 out

The difference in odds of scoring from 2nd and scoring from 3rd on base hit is minimal

Chill. It's only May 2. No need to freak out yet. I'm going to give it another week.

Okay, time to let it go. Cain is still awesome. We love him.

This is starting to smell like the classic Royals April-May losing streak where we go like 2-14 and then at the end of July go "if we had just kept that losing streak to 4-12..."

I don't think it's any individual player right now. Just overall philosophy and/or attitude.

Half the roster hasn't paid attention to Ned's screaming and yelling.

Yeah, I agree with that. My point is Cain clearly liked his chances of drawing a throwing error or a WP more than he likes them of Morales getting a hit.

Ned needs to take off his belt and spank them.

Hold onto that feeling because I don't think that was the case but it does make you feel better in a sad way ....

ROFL

I got that sinking feeling we are getting shutout...again...

Going into this game we were at a -1 in run differential...now at -3
