BLS poll: Will Nats, Royals or 'other' win race to the bottom?
Let's forget for a minute that the Nationals are still playing .357 baseball, just lost one of their promising young arms to a major injury and have just under a week to come up with beacoup bucks to sign Stephen Strasburg. Yes, put all of those sad stories aside and break out your Curly Ws, because they've actually played themselves into this thing! By "thing"...
Royals notes: Hochevar working on a splitter
It’s the kind of thing that’s easily missed, but the kind of thing that could end up changing Luke Hochevar’s career. Hochevar is tinkering with a split-finger fastball, using it sparingly, he said, in each of his last three starts for the Royals.
What if the Royals were just good, not great, at defense?
Quick thought about defense:
What if the Royals -- or any team, for that matter -- changed their scouting philosophy to focus on defense?
This doesn't mean trying to find a really good center fielder and then filling in the rest. It doesn't mean trading for Yuniesky Betancourt and then hoping his tools catch up.

From The Couch: Nick Swisher & Johnny Damon Continue *********** Rampage
BC didn’t bother with the Yanks-Sox last night with football on the tube.

Anyway, the Yankees hired guns were too good for the Sox and the [...]

Butler's best
Butler at his best Despite having 33 fewer at-bats this season compared with all of ’08, the Royals’ Billy Butler already has career highs in several categories.
Moving Things Around: The Alberto Callaspo Edition
In a season that can most aptly be described as a hatef***ing of the fans, it would seem that now might be the time to blow this team up.
Not like Dayton Moore said was going to happen after the disappointment of last season, either.
No, what needs to happen is some actual self-realization as to where this team has fallen short.
In a season marked with empty apologies...
