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:
If you locate something of interest.. ANYTHING.. deals on apparel, best ways in/out of the stadium, giveaways, great stories from this season or from seasons gone by, rumors, trades, anything.... feel free to post it here.

For everything decent, please allow Dusty Baker to be that stupid. And duncan is absolutely right about moving as many prospects as necessary to get starting pitching.

We have to start thinking about these prospects as chips and nothing else, particularly pitchers.

I was thinking about this earlier as well. Initially when thinking about trading Ventura I wasn't on board, but I think I have come around and would support it. I mean who knows when he would be ready and even how good he will really be. After hearing the past few years about all our pitchers and now seeing they haven't lived up to expectations for the most part, I am more than willing to see him go if it means improving our ML roster tomorrow. I still think Myers is untouchable. He is much easier to project than a starting pitcher who is still two years away. Also, Myers fits a need on the roster right away. Adding Garza and getting a pitcher in FA instantly makes us a contender. It seems like there will be a lot of second tier pitchers available after this season that are the type of guy we can afford to pay and still get a solid pitcher.

At this point, we're looking like we're going to make history by being the first team to have the #1 rated system and NOT make the playoffs. What does that tell you about how we've handled our prospects? And I'm not suggesting that we're not doing a great job in player development (which may or may not be the case--evidence for concern with pitchers).

I think we have to seriously assess our pitching coaching at the AAA and AA levels. And for the record, I think the answer to our pitching woes should be addressed through all of this money we've been "saving" for free agency. Bump the payroll and buy two of the three aforementioned pitchers on five year deals. It will give us a five year window and allow us to deal a lot of our pitching prospects for the next wave.

Last time I started a thread we ended up winning four in a row, including a sweep of the Rays. I think I will take a shot at it tonight if no one minds

Hoping Frenchy hits well until july 31st since the Reds and Indians seem to have some interest for him. Also hope Brox gets traded. Mets are interested

Just goes to show that some teams still need OF help, especially guys that are at least above average defensively. There are tons of Dysons and Buorugouis out there, but Frenchy does at least have a gun. Also, what I love about Frenchy is that we couldn't care less what we get for him so there isn't much pressure. Just get rid of him and we will be ecstatic.

Will Smith to start tomorrow. I like it. He deserves a longer chance at a spot in the rotation.
