A issue they have with the roster is that MJ is playing better but much of that is because they finally stopped playing him against lefties. And I’m fine with platooning him, but then you run into the issue of Isbel also being terrible against lefties. You can’t keep two “starting” outfielders who both can’t play against lefties. It’s kind of compounded because two of the guys we could really use to help the outfield in the next year or two are Cross and Cags, both lefties. Cross is pretty bad against them so far in his career. So they have some decision making to do around the roster in the off season which will be interesting to watch.

They have an easier schedule than us down the road.

Hootie called his shot on Moose for the 15 season in a way that’s seldom been replicated on here, Fanduel, and online bb’s everywhere.

How about we recognize that bullpen work? Post rain delay,
FIVE perfect innings. |

Most likely an anomaly. But it was solid work agains the top team in the division. And it appears the Royals are catching the Indiuardians at the right moment.

But, honestly, I think what we saw last night says a LOT more about where Cleveland is right now that it does our bullpen. They're reeling . . . . . BAD. They just seem mentally beat down right now (which is great for us!) Unless something dramatic changes, I'd say the division will come down to us and Minnesota. We're gonna have to beat them next week. Got 6 straight at home against Cleveland then Twins. Fun times to be a Royals fan again! |

Stephen Vogt’s face in the press conference last night was very similar to the mug he wore just after the Royals snatched the WC game away from the A’s on 09/30/2014

Interested in why you say this? I don't follow other teams close enough to know why Cleveland appears to be built on a house of cards and has fallen apart.

Their starting rotation has been patchwork all year. Their bullpen is lights-out, but heavy usage is wearing it down. Except for Clase, who is an alien.
