***Official Michael Wacha against Tarik Skubal 4/20/25 GameDay thread***
 

Tall order today. The Royals draw the second best starting pitcher in MLB after Paul Skenes. We counter with Michael Wacha. 2 to 1 on the Boys is our offered wager.

Pasquantino is the only lefty in the Royals lineup. The batting order for the Boys is as follows:

India
Witt Jr the Second
Salvadore
Mark Canha
Garcia
Renfroe
Pasquantino
Ferm-dog
Drew Waters

Tall order today indeed. One year ago to the day, Jesus rose from the grave. Tall orders have been known to come through on this day.

last year was fun!

I recall Yuliel Gurriel being on the team last year. It wasn't that fun.

I tried filing a missing persons report on Joey Wiemer but the cops said I need to wait an additional 48 hours. Further updates in future threads.

Good luck Royals! You're going to need it, I'm afraid. Just get this road trip done, the schedule gets much better and we will be home for a bit.

We need another bark at the park to snap ourselves out of the dog days of sum....oh wait it's still April.

I gotta give Bobby Witt Junior a lot of credit. He could have easily asked himself out of the lineup. Wacha would be pissed but he has enough credibility that he could have ducked this one. But he didn't. He's out there doing his best. What a legend.

Scoreless through one. Sexy Rexy is on his A game, talking about first overall picks eating a bite of humble pie. I think he was a first overall pick himself.

No he wasn't.

That's a great AB by Vinnie. Skubal was getting strikes at shin level and Vinnie hung in there for the RBI.

He was a high first rounder I know that much.

Glad we are resurrecting our offense today!!!

Rex Hudler once had a 3 game playing streak LOL

Happy Easter to you too, sir. Did you find any eggs today?

2-0 Royals and Wacha is dealing out there.
