HUGE lift - on to KC to beat their AAA squad.

 

 

No DeJesus, Guillen or Pods. Do they have anyone left that can hit?

 

 

Anything but a sweep would be a major failure.

 

Get ready for a major failure then. The Royals split with the Yankees in a 4-game set last weekend in KC. Yes split.

And KC took 2 of 3 from the Tribe.

Actually the team has been playing well of late, kind of like when we went into Baltimore. 2 of 3 would be very nice. 3 would be awesome. Losing all 3 would be not good. Losing 2 would be major buzzkill.

I'm sorry, but in the first game, there were two terrible managerial decisions made. Letting Kotsay hit vs a LHP in the 5th, and keeping Thornton in for a 3rd inning..

 

No manager in baseball pinch hits for a starter in the fifth inning. Give me a break.

Blame Gavin for pitching like s***.

Would any manager in baseball pinch hit for a platoon player against a LHP when that player is 0-21 on the season against leftys?

 

I'd say so.

 

And yes, the reason we lost that game was Gavin wetting the bed with 6 ER
