Royals need to slow it down, swinging at everything. Too much confidence.

OK, it's official. If the Royals make the world series I will trade away my Game 1 porch tickets for naming rights to my friend's unborn child. His wife relented and agreed to it.

  • 1997 - A resolution creating a 16-team National League and a 14-team American League for the upcoming season is approved by Major League Baseball. The expansion Devil Rays are placed in the AL Eastern Division, and the NL's newest team, the Rockies, will play in the circuit's Western Division.
Look I know they hadn't much success before 1997 but saying the Rockies straight-up didn't exist is ignoring the contributions of Andres Galarraga and Larry Walker entirely, and that's just not fair.

Cards lineup is out. Same as yesterday. More Grichuk. No Bourjos despite Miller being an extreme fly ball pitcher in an enormous OF.

If Vogelsong throws a single heater to Grichuk, he is a dumb man. Dude's Pedro Cerrano out there.

I've seen games go perfect for 12 innings all for naught. I've seen no-hitters pitched on illicit drugs. Homer streaks lasting eight games and 20 run losses. I've seen pennants won and seasons collapse. All these memories will be lost in time. Like tears in the rain.

Time to die.

That part of you is worse at making lineups than Mike Matheny.

Please don't let that part of you open any hunting knives.
