Why can't we let Blanco get a shot at starting? He was hot as shit not too long ago. Why can't we bring up a couple of AAA guys to see what they can do? We keep running out this lineup that is bottom 3 in the league. They couldn't do any worse.

I was right about the W total ceiling but wrong that it would not be enough for a playoff spot. I will gladly take being wrong on that side of it any day. What a season! October baseball, for however short or long it may last, has come back to KC (well, not "to" KC but you get it).

I put this in the Twins thread but it needs to be here.
This was a little like the 1976 AL West race. Royals came out on fire to put the A's in a hole and then just couldn't beat anybody in late August and September. But Sal Bando, right before the ASB left a note in the visitors locker that said "The Royals won't last. And signed it "Capt Sal". The A's came charging and got within 2 games with 5 to play. But Larry Gura threw a 4 hitter and they clinched a tie that night. The Royals lost the final 3 games to the Twins at home, but Oakland lost also and the 76 Royals were division champs. I went to all three games. The Sunday game was huge because Carew, Brett and McRae were all within 2 points for the batting title. Brett went 3-4 and finished at .333 Steve Bry misplayed a ball in LF that was scored a 2B. Mac went 2-4 and finished at 332. Carew went 2-4 and finished at 331 McRae was upset after his last AB because he felt Gene Mauch wanted Brett to win the title and had Bry misplay that ball discussed above. Mac yelled into the Twins dugout calling Mauch a MF'er. Benches emptied, near brawl. But it was over quickly. |

The 1976 playoff series is my first sports memory. I was 6. My mom locked herself in the bedroom for an hour after Chambliss's homer. I wasn't 100% sure what happened, but I knew it was bad.
