I had no idea who Tony Bruno was until they put him in Madden.

I have nothing but hatred and contempt towards that man solely because of that.

That was a really dumb thing for him to say but I'm not surprised at all.

Year of the Ump in KC right now.

Yeah, what an asshole. I'm glad Yost got in his face.

Johnny Giavotella hit his first MLB home run today in his 3rd game. The Royals infield "dream team" of Hosmer/Gio/Moustakas is now in place, hopefully for many years to come. They blazed a through AA/AAA together to get here, and we're now a couple of starting pitchers away from having a great 2012. The Royals may actually be a contending team soon for the first time in about 25 years.

Whoa lets not get ahead of ourselves here.

If by a couple you mean 5 then yes.

And its baby steps. As Dayton would say, trust the process.

You always jump on the defensive side so easily. I'm just implying that it's weird seeing a Brewers fan at the end of the day compliment Greinke. Jfc.

That hasn't been true on GAF at all. Twitter is another story.

What are Brewers fans whining about when it comes to Greinke?

He has the lowest SIERA in the league for any SP, and the last 2 months have finally broken down the disconnect between his numbers and the results on the field.

D-Backs got this. Giants better hope the Braves stumble it's their only hope to make the playoffs.

Wait you turned on Joe Mauer? How can you turn your back on that .050 ISO?

I wouldn't turn on mai waifu. He's not been good the last week or so, though. But hey neither has anyone else. The worst is the god damn pitching. The starters can't get anyone out. Blackburn, Pavano, and Duensing are basically automatic losses. Liriano hasn't had a good start in weeks. Baker is the only pitcher worth a shit right now. And he's probably going to get shelled by the Red Sox on Monday. Maybe the front office will patch all the holes they created on the team this offseason. Oh wait, trust Bill Smith? LOL.

Aw thanks. It means a lot as a mere Junior to get a complement especially here at MLB gaf.

I can't blame you for being bummed out. Bill Smith is a joke. Only the worst GM's in baseball get caught up in the are we buyers or are we sellers limbo that he got caught up in. Even Kenny Williams knew staying completely put was fools gold.

It's terrible. They were a 94 win team last year, and every move they've made from the offseason on has been pretty damn bad. They've won one game since the trade deadline. Ugh.

I'm expecting their big off season move to be overpaying Cuddyer in both money & years. They'll let Kubel go, and he'll be a stud wherever he ends up. They will have to pay Delmon like $8 million through arb, and he'll still suck. They have to rebuild the entire bullpen, again, and I'm expecting that they'll bungle that. They will likely roll into the season with the same starting five as they have this year which will be stupid. And they'll have a new middle infield yet again. Yeeeeugh.

Where they're at right now, they need to put basically every veteran on the team except Mauer, Baker, Span, and Perkins on waivers and trade them.

Oh and I'm fully expecting Kyle Gibson to need Tommy John surgery so that he for sure can't contribute next year.

I think we have one of the bigger fanbases in MLB-age actually. But we were never really expecting anything out of Wang so it wasn't a huge surprise that he came up and stunk up the joint.

Don't really see any salt anywhere actually. Felix wasn't facing the Mariners so it really wasn't a fair fight.

Forgive me for being hard-pressed for Wang jokes, I was squeezed for time when I wrote that. </entire season on Nats forum>

Just saw that Constanza slide in the Braves game that Frankman was crying about. It was clearly not dirty, he just slid way too late and went into the bag out of control.
