2012 Kansas City Royals Repository Thread
2012 Slogan: Our Time
A better, more accurate 2012 Slogan: It is Finally Next Year (from Great Expectations) An alternative slogan if you don't like that one: Someone has to win this crappy division (from alnorth) With the beginning of a new year, it is time for the 2012 version of the Royals Repository Thread. We've got Hosmer, we've got a 2011-dominating Gordon, we've got Moose, we've got hopefully a killer bullpen, we've got a stereotypical slow slugging DH, we've got easily one of the best defensive shortstops in the AL, we've got a promising catcher in Salvador Perez. Hell, we've got offense and promising prospects galore. We do not have starting pitching. Oh yeah, we've also got this: ![]() Get ready for, (as of January 2012 anyway), one of the most confusing puzzles of a baseball season in recent Royals history. Will they suck? Maybe, I don't know. Will we be given a year of 0.500 baseball? Possibly, I don't know. Will they win the division and go to the playoffs for the first time in 27 years? For the first time in a long time, it could happen, I don't know. 92 losses, 92 wins, or anything in between would not surprise a lot of us. Everything goes here except Gameday threads and really big news. If a giant story breaks, the Royals achieve some awesome milestone, or we sign/lose a highly significant player/coach/mascot/whatever, then it might also deserve its own thread. This being Chiefs Planet, please do not clutter the board with new threads about trivial Royals news or you will only annoy those who come here for just Chiefs football. If you aren't sure and its not a Gameday thread, it goes here. What sort of stuff often goes here? SPchief explained it well, so I'll just copy that: Quote:

Does anyone know when they're going to start televising games on MLB.tv? KCSP is great and all, but I bought a subscription for a good reason...

Games are over. Royals lost to the Indians 3-2, and beat the Padres 7-4.
Hoch threw 29 pitches in 2 scoreless innings, mostly using a new changeup he's been working on.

Thanks for update Al. Can't wait for season to start. Think Hoch figured some things out last year and is a 15 game winner for us this year. Heard an interview with Hosmer the other day and he said that Sanchez is dealing.

Quick ticket question...
Anyone know if there's a way to get a ticket to the Pepsi Party Porch in RF without having a gigantic group? My friends & I always enjoy standing in front of the fountains in RF but I don't see an option on the website to buy tickets to have an actual seat down there. Anyway, if someone knows if there's a way to get tix out there without having a bazillion people in a group, let me know. If not, that's cool too. |
