    Offense and bullpen are the reasons this team is treading water.

    The starters have been adequate.

    I would be rioting, but I can't see Puig having much value anymore. :(

    should have said average but i'm pissed
    wood pitched his ass off today
    and the pen did a great job
    but the hitters should be ashamed of themselves

    And low key Yunel is ballin, been ballin going on 2yrs now.
    I'd do that deal, maybe try to squeeze another pen arm or two out of it, but yeah.
    And then flip Turner for whatever..would piss off the clubhouse, but fuck everybody other than CK/Corey/Joc anyway Lol

    Pretty much.
    The Royals look at this starting staff and dream of winning 3-4 titles in a row with it.

    Roster as currently constructed is not good enough.

    We'll see if they're throwing in the towel this year or not soon enough. Seems to be the LA Sports mantra these days.

    So fucking pathetic.

    The starting pitching has definitely stepped it up since I posted that thread, which is a great sign. But yeah, we aren't going anywhere with this offense. I'm always shocked when we get things going. I just have no confidence in them. I used to have hopes when players like Puig came up to bat, but now I just assume it's going to be an out

    We need someone exciting in this lineup again. Someone like Manny that can just put energy into everyone else.

    Someone like a Machado, Arenado, Trout? The former two are both in contract years so it's hard to envision trading a lot of top prospects for a potential rental. But there are definitely people we should be targeting in FA notwithstanding the fact that they'll turn down arbitration and we'll have to give up a pick.

    Puig was that once.
    Folks that hate puig also hated manny.
    Of course they tolerate them as long as they are mvp caliber players and putting the team on their back for impressive second half runs to the playoffs.
    So why not another guy that will be hated in 2 years time.
    How bout Hanley... oh wait.

    I suppose. But even 2 years ago when Puig had his best season, he was never a completely dominant hitter that I think we are sorely missing.

    as much as it sucks to say it maybe they should start looking at the model to the north that seems to work pretty fucking well
    why is it only other teams get consistent gamers?
