Royals series

[scbalt52]

Could be a brawl today. Baker's moonwalk Monday night was duplicated by Garrett last night. If Baker comes in things could get feisty, especially if he hits someone.

Jones was I think a top 30 guy when he headlined the Bedard deal. 

I think even at the time folks were mostly pleased with that return.

Jones got as high as #7 on prospect list.  Not sure he was that high when traded to the O's.

I didn't find that.  Which list?

Looking through those old lists can be troublesome.

I seriously hope Baker and none of other pitchers are juvenile and stupid enough to throw at anyone over that.

When you're a bad team, you have to imagine personal grudges to get thru the season.  I'm sure Bautista's whistle is aimed squarely at KC.  If KC gets a big hit off Bautista, play the whistle, that will show him!

I remember it very well that the O's got the #7 prospect for Bedard for years.  Couldn't find the list anywhere.  It was probably some list done by a high school kid.  I believe it was the same list that had Jay Bruce #1.  Reds wouldn't give up Bruce.  I guess the O's lucked out on that one.

Why would that cause a brawl? I think it's awesome. Baker would have no grounds to complain because he did the same thing.

I had the idea that this was possibly a trap game/series. The Royals played hard but we still got the series win. That's all that matters in the standings. Winning is winning.

Burn Kauffman Stadium to the ground. I hate that place.

I didn’t even watch the game cause I was at work and I feel like this game took 5 years off of my life.

I was trying to finish some drywall around a new door I put in and follow on GameDay...I think I should have just focused on the drywall and painting instead. I'm sure it would have been less stressful.

This was just like that Oakland series. Terrible pitching is bailed out by offense and we come away with a series win without knowing how or really feeling like we did at all.

That 8th inning started with the walk to Frazier.  I cussed him out when he swung at the 2-0 pitch.   Chapman has been lights out so far this year.  He kind of unraveled today and looked more like the 2022 version.

I don’t think anyone can trust him in a playoff stretch too wild and also if he walks someone with minimal speed it turns into a triple.  The same with Bautista a walk in playoffs and the race will be off.  A walk and pinch runner coming in going to turn it into a double or triple.

Severely disappointing series.
