Royals 2012 Kansas City Royals Repository Thread - Page 212

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:

Don't bitch to royals fans about the dl you puss. Half our rotation is on the dl, our closer is on the dl and a third of our starters are on the dl.

Thats 73 games if they played in the central they would have another 71 games to make that 1 game under .500 up.

What a great idea.

That way all three of them can cry to each other about some of their players are on the DL.

And they can bog it down with tweets and stuff too.

Neat.

Yes, you dumbass. The other 71 games would be made up against teams from the division you are bitching about playing in, and the AL West, who has the best team in baseball playing in it.

No do the math 18 * 4 is 72 games a season.He said 2010 and 2011 so that is 144 so that would be another 71 games vs the central.

I'm really tempted to make the O's repository thread myself.

Why would they do better? The games played they ended up under 500 but if they had more chances they would NEVER be under 500? Not to mention they still have to play teams in other divisions each season.

**** you and the orioles.
