Mac;
I know you are fired up about the win streak as of late...but they only played Boston 3 games and won 2 of the 3.
Keep the faith.

Royals take 3 of 4 from the Twinks this weekend. I binge-watched all 4 of the games and we're seeing a big co tribution from the farm. Bonifacio, Solar, Merrifield, and Torres have all stepped up and are playing great ball. Yesterday, the 6, 7, 8, and 9 hitters all homered.
We're tied for 2nd with MN. 3 back of the Tribe. 41-40 at the midseason.
Not much different for the Cards. 39-41, back 3 from the league leader.
Go Royals AND Cards!!!!

I'm waiting to the last month of the season to jump on or off the wagon...been to one game so far, top deck was full of Girl Scouts, you couldn't find a beer vendor, all ice cream and cotton candy, bet they made a killing...
It kinda sucks, the Royals are playing just good enough to stay in contention, which means they will hold onto their four or five free agents, might try to make a splash at the trade deadline, using some young talent as trade bait, which we don't have much of...right now, I see this year could set back the Royals quit a bit...starting pitching has been good since April, pull pen has been spotty and I don't see it getting better...

It might be worth it just to see Dogs posts explaining why they signed someone from New Money..

Boras is Hosmer's agent. He'll end up on one of the coasts...

I'm afraid it's going to be a tough weekend coming up for the New Money Boys. I've never been a fan of any of the coast teams (the media already loves them enough) but I have to admit that the Dodgers do look like the class of the NL.

In case you were wondering.........Even with your 9 game win run in July.......the Royals still only won 18 games in the same span. Still trailing Old money.

Boys in Blue are 2 games back in the AL Central and are currently IN the wild card game
Birds 5.5 games back in NL Central and 8 games OUT of the wild card game
Until the Birds break .500, the biggest question in Cardinal Nation is who is running this team
Matheny or Molina??

I'm confused...........when did the regular season turn into 180 games???
1 Game difference can be huge. Just ask Bubba's 2011 Braves what 1 game meant. 1 game decides plenty of things.

Based on size of the market, KC's attendance ain't bad. By comparison, Cards should be sold out every game, dog....
