That Witt kid is awesome.

 

[Chapow]

But you never would have played Rojas, you’ve stated that many times in the past. Guy is one of our hottest hitters. It’s really easy to second guess.

The guy was criticizing Servais for playing Rojas like 4 or 5 days ago. Lol.

 

[Crizilla]

Well, with JP out they had no choice but to go Rojas and Cabby as so it seemed. But they went with Moore who sucks defensively. Moore has had some terrible fielding the last few games which is why he got benched today. Just stick with Cabby....it's the better choice stats prove it.

 

[Chapow]

Last 30 days

Jose Caballero
.188 BA
.289 OBP
.219 SLG
.508 OPS

Dylan Moore
.310 BA
.389 OBP
.738 SLG
1.121 OPS

The stats definitely prove something, but I don't think it's that sticking with Cabby is the better choice.

Runner on 3rd base, and these guys are swinging for the fences.

 

[Chapow]

Sure would be nice to see Munoz shut it down here against the bottom of the order.

 

[Hawk-Lock]

Might be time to sit munoz for a while. The error didn’t help but he is really struggling.

 

[Bobblehead]

Well we don’t have to worry about the pen blowing the lead today.

your fault

 

[Chapow]

Munoz struggling badly again. Brash blew it last night. Who do they go to late in games when it's close? This is getting really problematic at this point.

I didn't like trading away Sewald, but I certainly didn't think our late inning guys would fall to pieces without him. It's starting to look much worse than I thought it would be.

 

[Bobblehead]

Just walk Melendiz

 

[stack55]

Omg….I think it’s my heart.

 

[sutz]

Royals didn't have anybody to pinch run for Perez?

 

[Crizilla]

Royals have better hitting coaches than the Ms. Good win though to stop the bleeding. Our starters need to get back on track.

 

[Bobblehead]

phew

 

[ivotuk]

I'm EXHAUSTED!!

 

[ivotuk]

"This is the BIG ONE!

Yeah those 39 wins really show off those hitting coaching abilities

 

[Chapow]

Thank God for Saucedo.

Can't trust Munoz with the game on the line anymore after his last 3 outings. Traded away Sewald. Brash blew it last night. Now what? Give Brash another shot and hope it works out? Give Saucedo another shot after a really good outing tonight?

Ugh.

 

[sutz]

Another tough game, but at least it came out right. Shouldn't have left Munoz out there for 40 pitches.

On to tomorrow. We can still win this series.

 

[stack55]

I don’t get why KC only has 39 wins. They are scrappers.
