I agree Tim that Zobrist is a big deal. K. Morales has been a surprise and a model DH.

As for Gordo heading to greener pastures, that would absolutely "gut" a stadium full of Midwestern fans. But not sayin' he couldn't or won't. When is his contract up?

Cueto won't last long. He'll help the Royals take the Series and he'll be down the road.

So I am sayin' the Royals are 50:50 odds to return to the WS.
