8/1/24 6:40 Royals @ Tigers

The last two months of this season are not going to build much optimism for 2025. Harris will stick to his plan or whatever but they don’t seem to understand that throwing away seasons damages your standing with fans.

Watch out for the WSox. They may catch us.

Down 3 runs in the 1st inning and our offense struggles? Evaluate away Scotty...maybe stop charging for tickets? Your product stinks

they got about 3.5 legit ML batters right now; this is going to be an awful 2-month finish; the ML product is going in reverse; from 2nd place to 4th and from 78 wins to about 72.

My only take on the rest of this season is this:

Can we please just bring up Jung and then just let the kids play all/most games.  If I’m gonna watch this team whimper down the stretch, I at least want to watch players that I have interest in for the future.  I don’t need to see Urshela, McKinstry and Madris play every day.

 

I get that the pitching is what it is, but positionally let’s just go all in on them.

How does McKinstry stay in the lineup constantly?

I'd prefer him to start a game at pitcher.

[IdahoBert]

We are being no hit. We may be witnessing a “historic” game. 

[Sports_Freak]

I'll tune in the last couple of innings to see the no-hitter. Will there be an *?

Players know that management has thrown in the towel. Hinch can say what he wants about everybody playing hard every day. They won't.    And even if they do, it won't matter. 😢

2 hits and run. Can't win for losing.

Well, I stopped paying attention so it’s that “Schrodinger’s cat” thing where something unpredictable occurs while I’m not looking.

They've been doing it for about 10 years now..

Can't really complain about Kieder. He had a QS if Hinch had taken him out at the end of 6.

Hard to watch though Lugo is having a career year. Keider throwing 95 on his 85th pitch is a good sign I suppose. Let’s hope he finishes strong and portends favorably for 2025.

needs more K's but that may come later if the stuff is there.

Looks like Hanifee can go back to wherever we got him from

on the bright side, Torkelson just hit one 441 ft in Indy.

After eight seasons and counting, it’s hard to believe they give a crap.
