The standings are obviously just for the hell of it, and skewed by the vast differences in GDT started by frequent and not-as-frequent posters. Nevertheless, they are weighted first by Games Back (0.5 games each per advantage in the Win and Loss columns) rather than Winning Percentage (just as with MLB standings).

Just like the Royals themselves, GabyKeepsMeWarm and cmh6476 started out especially hot, but have racked up mostly Ls lately.

So here's hoping one of the holders of a winning streak in GDTs can start the GDT for an important weekend of Royals baseball vs the Red Sox, currently 1 game ahead of us for the last wild card spot.

And it would be a great way to go into the ASB, winning the series on the road. Game time 6:10 p.m.
