I give up on Royals' pitching prospects; they should have traded Monty in the offseason when he still had perceived value. The Wil Myers/Frenchy thing would be funnier if it weren't for the Cabrera/Sanchez laugh riot.28 years and countinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00549107719428865291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2822271285691273572.post-71439952638233302012012-07-18T18:35:34.936-07:002012-07-18T18:35:34.936-07:00Can we also blame him for hiring Ned Yost? Also, i...Can we also blame him for hiring Ned Yost? Also, is there a pending case against Ned Yost for physically assaulting his bullpen? I’d also like to get your thoughts on Mike Montgomery. I know that his stats in AA are terrible thus far but the fact that he is still considered by some to be a ‘top prospect’ and is almost 23 years old with no big league experience bugs me. Why not just call him up and tell him “Mike, it’s time to sink or swim. You’re going to do your ‘developing’ up here at the highest level.” I don’t see the downside in it considering his age and the state of the Royals rotation as it is. It’s fine to keep running Luke Hochevar and company out there and getting terrible results? I know it’s cliché but maybe a change of scenery or a nod of confidence would do Montgomery good.<br /> <br />Lastly, what the hell is Wil Meyers still doing in the Minor Leagues? I understand they are trying to spread out arbitration, but in Myers’ case there is nothing left to prove or work on in the minors. He is doing the same thing (if not more so) that Hosmer did when they called him up. Frenchy’s time has come and gone. He can still wear the costume of clubhouse leader, but he shouldn’t have the opportunity to lead by example (thankfully). So, thoughts on the Wil Myers situation too if you don’t mind.Travishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15863210098546937790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2822271285691273572.post-20568556438019871252012-07-04T16:56:56.589-07:002012-07-04T16:56:56.589-07:00GM eh? you're moving up in the world.

Th...Wish Ned Yost thought more of the Adcock stock. They bring him up to make a spot start because the bullpen and rotation is exhausted already and he pulls him in the 3rd (I think). He wasn't doing terrible and the game was close why not leave him out there and tell him he is throwing 120 pitches no matter what because the bullpen is already on running on fumes? <br /><br />The Ned Yost stock for me is almost at low as the Rex Hudler stock. Speaking of the Hudler stock, can I get your analysis on that?Travishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15863210098546937790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2822271285691273572.post-59350830048370880672012-05-12T12:00:22.766-07:002012-05-12T12:00:22.766-07:00He's still in his arb years, so the best thing...He's still in his arb years, so the best thing is for him to be sooooooooooooo bad that he can be non tendered at the end of the year.

I know I should know this, but what is left on his contract? How much longer do you think it will take for them to just realize he is the worst first round pick they have had in a decade and just cut ties? <br /><br />He is the opposite of Justin Verlander. Verlander takes the mound and you know Detroit is most likely going to win, or at least keep that game close. When Hochever pitches you know the Royals are going to need to put up double digits to have a chance. Sorry for the rant, but I'd rather have Getz on the mound than Hochever at this point..Travishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15863210098546937790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2822271285691273572.post-57782395220321706312012-04-27T12:51:22.442-07:002012-04-27T12:51:22.442-07:00Now you're just killing me.
