MEDICAL WATCH:

OF Joey Gathright (left shoulder) did not play July 3-4 and was day-to-day.

INF Alberto Callaspo (undisclosed medical condition) went on the 15-day disabled list June 28.

RHP Leo Nunez (tear in right lat) went on the 15-day disabled list May 28. He began throwing off flat ground June 11.

LHP John Bale (fatigued shoulder, fractured left hand) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to April 16, and he was transferred to the 60-day DL on June 24. He threw a pain-free bullpen session April 29, and he was scheduled to be activated in the middle of the week of May 5-11. But after a so-so bullpen session May 2 during which his shoulder didn't respond as Bale would've hoped, Bale punched a hotel door in Cleveland and fractured his left (throwing) hand.

RHP Luke Hudson (shoulder surgery in June 2007) opened the season on the 15-day disabled list, and he was transferred to the 60-day DL on May 30. He began pitching in extended spring training in mid-May.

We all need to do other things. Were all wasting our lives watching these sorry sacks of $H!T play baseball not much better than any of us could. They don't hit, pitch, run the bases or play defense.

Screw em'. I'm sick of it. Even if they don't have the necessary talent they could atleast be mentally prepared right? They could run the bases well and hit cut offs? Wrong. They don't hav

First off, I'm not going to pretend to being capable of being the GM or manager of the Royals.   Dayton Moore assisted John Schuerholz in Atlanta of one of the most impressive runs of divisional titles in the history of the game.   Trey Hillman went to a foreign country, had to learn a bit of their language and culture an ...(more)

The Royals obtained utilityman Ryan P. Freel in a trade with the Cubs for a player to be named later.   Freel is a lifetime .269 hitter with a career OBP of .355.   He's a fast runner with very little power.   He plays second, third and the outfield.  ...(more)

I know that the Royals have a lot more problems than Dave Owen but I'm just wondering if any of you Royals fans have taken notice of this idiot coach at 3rd base. He has been a key problem for why we strand runners constantly and come up with zip. This guy always holds up the runners when he should wave them in and he waves them in when they ...(more)

In year's past it's still been enjoyable for me to watch almost all Royals games even though going in I knew KC had a 45% chance at best of winning.  Why is it so hard this year?  Is it because they were off to such a promising start? 

The Royals were 18-11; 3 games ahead of the

Alright guys, is Ponson going to be able to go into Twinkieland and pull off his first win? Out of our current starting rotation, he is definitely our worst option, but I'll admit, he was been able to chew up some innings and keep us in ballgames. Lets hope he doesn't revert to the pattern of following up a decent performance with crumby outing.

Here is to starting May how we fini

The Royals radio announcers always love to throw some stats out to make the games interesting, plus baseball is a game that lends itself to lots of analysis.  The stat that was amazing to me was, this year the team is now 24-14 when they score 4 or more runs.  10 games over .500 when the offense actually produces.

A good streak of baseball coming. Call me crazy but I think we are going to finally see some consistency in our bats. If they can establish consistent hitting then the 2nd half of the season has the potential to be relatively entertaining. I'm not going to completely jump off the bridge and say we are going to finish 1st or 2nd place, but if we could finish 3rd I would be ...(more)

Zack did not even get out of the 1st inning with out giving up a run. His ERA should jump from 2.00 to 3.50.
The Royals need to find away to support him and score some runs. He is 10-4.

I have NEVER seen a team that leaves more runners stranded in scoring position then this team. If we even had a 30% success rate in this department we would be in first place. I get so sick of seeing the box score and finding out that we left 9,10, 11, 12, 13, etc on base. Last night we had the bases loaded with one out and we got nada, zippo!
