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:

I think he's referring to Frenchy and Chen, but that's just my speculation.

Dude is a stud. I have been screaming bloody murder for almost 20 years that the Royals need a legit catcher. If they don't like this kid up for life they are as ignorant as they come.

I'm glad our starters are getting lit up. I was starting to get worried that DM/Glasshole was going to have a legit excuse to spend no money on outside starting pitching.

It's safer than a meth addiction. Well a little safer.

Salvy has ridiculous power. He nearly pulled a flat line drive out of the K.

The ONLY player on this team or even in this organization that is untouchable is Perez, the rest should all be on the block.

Frenchy grounds out on his first pitch to kill the rally. Naturally. Why does Frenchy even play over Cain? Anytime Dyson is in CF, Cain should be in right. Dumb.

Gordon is pretty untouchable as well, imo.
