Then you do truly feel my pain. The GM Dayton Moore and the Manager here Ned Yost just can't get enough of Yuniesky Betencourt. They freeking love that guy here. Dayton Moore has had his eyes on this guy since he was a low level minor leagues. They aquired him a couple years ago to be an every day starter after he had failed elsewhere and the guy was horrible. Then after proving nothing in his time with the Brewers they went and aquired him again. Fans were outraged so the GM and Manager both came out and said "Don't worry, he's just a utility guy, he won't be an every day starter." Bullshit, anybody who is with the Royals as a utility player ends up being an every day starter. Willie fuckin Bloomquist started nearly every damn game back when he was here. Same with Mark Teahen and for the most part Mitch Mier. And so far Betencourt has started nearly every game this season.
And I hope you accept my apology for talking shit on the Mariners. They may not be the best franchise but they are still light years ahead of the Royals.

Lol you don't need to apologize, we all hype our teams up and want them to be better. I've sat through a lot of shitty seasons with the Mariners, minus the Griffey/A-Rod/Johnson era and a few good years with Ichiro and company they've been crap. We've had awful management that destroyed the team and even though we have a good GM now it's still going to take time cause of the pile of crap he inherited. I don't know anything about the Royals management, but all shitty teams have there day at some point. Look at how bad the Rays sucked from when they started up until a few years ago, they still have shit attendance and a low payroll but have been a top Eastern division team for the last several years.
Hack Wilson - real:
the royals are needed to give the YAnkees an extra couple wins each year

Supporting a losing team for 25 years? Thank goodness I've been a Yankees fan since I could read :).

Now the team might be bad, but Hosmer has potential IMO. Dude was one of the rookies last year who made immediate impacts on their teams (like Ackley, Trumbo, Hellickson, Freeman, Sale, Montero etc...), I'm sure other teams would at least be interested in having him.

Dude will be like a .275 hitter, maybe 17 homeruns a year and around 85 RBI's. TOPS!!! I don't expect much more from him. So far this year he is hitting .200. You may say I'm over-reacting but what about the fans around here that over-reacted and said he was a sure-fire MVP candidate for the next 10-15 years. I mean seriously people were hyping him up like that around here.

Really hope the Jays sweep the series lol
