You want a guy who has played 12 years at LF to suddenly move to 1st.......because he has committed 21 errors in 7 year. You really are a special kind of stupid. Probably dumber than Holliday. That dude can't learn a new position. He is dumb as your post. See ball. Run to ball. Throw ball back to dirt track looking thing. We have 2 more years with him in the OF before he retires. Relax Francis. It's not like he makes 15 errors a year out there and hits like Kozma.

It's more about first base than anything to do with Holidays brain or poor defense that you harp on more than me.
It's about getting power out of the first base position, a pre requisite for any championship team and a spot we have sorely missed upon the past few years.
It's about forcing the Cardinals to make a move for more team power to fill his shoes in left.
It's a forkin opinion. You have yours and fortunately for me, I have mine.

A healthy Matt Adams puts more pop in the lineup and a higher BA than Heyward did in right.......and every ok r seemed thrilled to pay him $23 mill a year for his subpar bat.
If a first baseman is what we need to win a championship in your mind, then go get one. Chris Davis is still available.

MLB is considering not even having the regular season for the NL. They might just declare the Cubs the winner and have a WS with the Cubs and whoever wins the AL...

Cards looking at a 3rd place finish and maybe a wild card slot.

Sorry homer. Been a Cards fan as long as I can remember. Just stating facts. Do like to see the Royals do well, but when the two meet I am backing the Cards.

Cards have about the same starting pitching as last year. What they lost has been replaced with healthy players returning and one add. The bullpen is better, at least on paper. The line-up lost a little with Heyward but they have depth in the OF with guys that have shown they can do it on the field. And the bench is clearly better (not that it took much to improve). Having a hard time seeing how they are going to have this huge drop and finish 3rd. Perhaps you know of some secret injuries the rest of us don't.
No question that injuries will derail this team. Hopefully, they can give key players and little more rest this year and not have a worn-out team come playoff time.

Facts? bwaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I have no idea what is going to happen this year but this team won more games than anyone in the division last year without their #1 starter for the entire year yet you have it as FACT they end up in 3rd place.

Lord knows the Royals should be well rested. They had the better part of 3 decades to rest up. Crow on Rooster......crow on.

Lookin at the picture in the article, he looks like a 10 year old learning first base. I work with Holliday's HS coach. Matt got the physical tools. His brother Josh got the smarts. Matt isn't smart enough to learn a new position at 36. Hell he wasn't smart enough to learn one at 26. Holliday will be in LF come opening day.

I did see that KC is 2-5 this Spring Training....not that Spring Training means anything, but it is 2 wins to the 2016 Yearly win total for those folks in KC keeping track of wins. Its a westside thing.
