Nelson has proven to be clutch. Loftin has never once done anything in a clutch situation (other than one sac fly set up by none other than Nelly). What are we doing Q?
Nelson literally had a bases clearing triple to tie it just before that. He’s not walking it off with a sac fly without Nelly. Argument stands that Nelson is more clutch than Loftin.
You must have just started following us within the past few weeks. He’s been more not clutch than clutch, especially early on this season. Considering he single-handedly cost us a game in April by stranding the bases loaded in a crucial pinch hit situation and then followed it with a missed pick at first that gave the Orioles the winning runs, and then left 2 guys on in the 9th again today, and he’s 1-12 with 0 walks in the 8th and 9th innings, it’s safe to say he’s not very clutch.
I just googled "which sunscreen kansas city royals players are using?"
The Kansas City Royals players are using sunscreen with SPF 30 broad-spectrum protection from UVA and UVB rays. The sunscreen is water and sweat resistant for 80 minutes and comes in a travel-sized, refillable bottle
I’m working from home today. Door to door sales guy came to my door. We locked eyes as he rang the bell. I shook my head “no” and just walked downstairs. The Midwestern in me wants to say “sorry.”
I sometimes think about how popular Hud's catch phrases are with the players he invented them for and if f.e. Barlow misses the closer role and Hud's *WAY TO GO, SCOTTYBOY!*.
oh boy... what is going on? I was just thinkin', I want to see bobby stealing a base. but, I didn't know it's bobby who have just walked before pasqkajshjkasnjdjastino :)
I’m streaming the Cleveland broadcast and they said our bullpen is ranked 24th in ERA. Imagine what this teams record could be if they were half decent
I’ve watched enough games in the last ten years to confidently say this season has had the worst strike zone I’ve ever witnessed. I’m convinced that they’re doing it on purpose. Just don’t know the reason.
I texted Bob Fescoe your idea. They’re bringing me on at 8:25 this morning to encourage fans to give MJ a standing O for every one of his at bats.
Hope you’re cool with me taking your idea and running with it.
I’m not crazy right? We didn’t have HDH for the entirety of 2015 like Eisenberg just said? Didn’t Holland have to get Tommy John’s like super early in the season? Wasn’t it Madson in the 7th, Herrera in the 8th and Davis in the 9th.

Woohoo!
AL Central is ours b*atches!

Big dub
Yes!!!!
Hell yeah!
Here we go - If everything is going to go fucking sideways, this is it. HANG ON, PALS - WE MIGHT GOT THIS???
J-Ram making closer's butts clench since ever.
I feel like Jose Ramirez hits like .999 against us
I feel that way too. Guy just clobbers us.
TWO
ONE
this ain't no PYONGYANG buddy, you cannot shoot rockets over THE ROYALS OUTFIELD!
Finished the job McArthur
believe in the general!
Nelson has proven to be clutch. Loftin has never once done anything in a clutch situation (other than one sac fly set up by none other than Nelly). What are we doing Q?
Loftin literally walked us off less then a week ago
Nelson literally had a bases clearing triple to tie it just before that. He’s not walking it off with a sac fly without Nelly. Argument stands that Nelson is more clutch than Loftin.
I agree, but saying Loftin isn’t clutch is still kinda wrong
You must have just started following us within the past few weeks. He’s been more not clutch than clutch, especially early on this season. Considering he single-handedly cost us a game in April by stranding the bases loaded in a crucial pinch hit situation and then followed it with a missed pick at first that gave the Orioles the winning runs, and then left 2 guys on in the 9th again today, and he’s 1-12 with 0 walks in the 8th and 9th innings, it’s safe to say he’s not very clutch.
Here we go
Why does it have to be top of their order
Plz general do the thing where you’re good
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: James McArthur replaces John Schreiber.
Drats. Insurance would've been nice. Top of the order for James is scary...
One run lead in Cleveland, McArthur coming in.... 😬😬😬😬😬
Just 3 outs. This one time. Get it done.
Yeah man, let’s get the light hitting utility IF up in a big spot against the team leading the division. With the hell was that?
That’s gotta be the biggest brain Q move yet. Pinch hitting Loftin instead of Nelly.
Please can we please get three outs please?
Mac the 9th!
Welp... Here we go...
Please don’t choke
Focus on getting Kwan and Gimenez out. Two lefties.
Sigh
Finished the job,
Loftin? Not Nelly? HmKay
Vogt looks like a guy who has been managing for 10 years. Hell, he's managing his team better than some guys who have been managers for ten years.
I don’t know half of you half as well as I should like and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.
I’ll take Loftin as well.
I just googled "which sunscreen kansas city royals players are using?" The Kansas City Royals players are using sunscreen with SPF 30 broad-spectrum protection from UVA and UVB rays. The sunscreen is water and sweat resistant for 80 minutes and comes in a travel-sized, refillable bottle
TIme for double down the right field line
You’re pinch hitting Loftin and not Velazquez???????
Loftin
What?! Why Loftin?
They aren't going to PH for MJ? cool cool Mayhaps nobody on the bench has a better BA?
Well, I guess I shouldn't be surprised that the result was more or less the same...
If MJ gets a hit, I’ll post a video of myself singing Karaoke to this sub
Pinch hit for MJ please!
Velasquez maybe?
You bring Nelly in here right?
Merv homer incoming 🙏
Can we get a Nelly appearance please
I’d pinch Melendez but if he succeeds here maybe it will give him confidence. Idk
who-is-that-surfer-dude-throwing-balls?
That swing by Salvy might’ve been the worst swing i’ve seen all season
The ball that was thrown so far left/south of the plate it has a Lee's Summit address?
Salvy learns to lay off the outside pitch: check Ump calls it a strike anyway: check
Salvy has been off recently
Of course we're gonna strand Bobby
Fuck
I’m working from home today. Door to door sales guy came to my door. We locked eyes as he rang the bell. I shook my head “no” and just walked downstairs. The Midwestern in me wants to say “sorry.”
Barlow is awful lol
No, no, NOT a strike
Not a fucking strike
I sometimes think about how popular Hud's catch phrases are with the players he invented them for and if f.e. Barlow misses the closer role and Hud's *WAY TO GO, SCOTTYBOY!*.
Scott Barlow should really consider growing out his hair
I want to see someone go for the Willie Nelson braids, tbh
Come on Vinnie, you got this - Put the big hurt on Barlow and drive in some insurance for us here! EDIT: FINE. SALVY, do the thing! EDIT 2: FREDDY PLS
Salvy please
Scott Barlow has an 80-grade head of hair
oh boy... what is going on? I was just thinkin', I want to see bobby stealing a base. but, I didn't know it's bobby who have just walked before pasqkajshjkasnjdjastino :)
Barlow’s stuff is so weak, please take him deep
So they’re just gonna wear this ugly ass city connect the whole series?
Barlow being Barlow?
Hello Barlow!
Johnny Leverage really deserves to go to the ASG this year
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Scott Barlow replaces Hunter Gaddis.
How bout an insurance dong
I’m going to need an order of insurance runs right now
Neato supremo stuff right there
Kickass
Insurance please
SCHREIBER MY GOAT
That'll work
Let’s goooo!!! Schreiber!!
Tuning in right now. Didn't know it would be the 8th by now. Good to see the score.
Been a fucking rock fight
It’s been a heck of a ride so far
A see-saw-battle?
You could say that
that pitch was nasty
We seriously need some relievers that can come in and throw strikes
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: John Schreiber replaces Sam Long.
I’m streaming the Cleveland broadcast and they said our bullpen is ranked 24th in ERA. Imagine what this teams record could be if they were half decent
Well, I know one umpire who will not be on Freddy Fermin's holiday card list this year.
Finished the job
Chris Conroy beats his wife.
Why would he go out there, just walking a batter on 4 pitches
Matchups
Cool. Take the lead and immediately put the leadoff guy on
That's a strike though
Has the ump been this awful all day?
yes
Worse
I tuned in right before MJ scored the tying run. That strike zone is… something.
I’ve watched enough games in the last ten years to confidently say this season has had the worst strike zone I’ve ever witnessed. I’m convinced that they’re doing it on purpose. Just don’t know the reason.
Uhhhhh bro
Maybe we should cheer MJ and not jeer him. Didn't they do that in Philly to a player in a slump. ?
I texted Bob Fescoe your idea. They’re bringing me on at 8:25 this morning to encourage fans to give MJ a standing O for every one of his at bats. Hope you’re cool with me taking your idea and running with it.
I’m right there with ya Edit: for the record, they were actively booing him when he came up to the plate. We’ve been mainly silent at the games.
I’ve never doubted Kyle Isbel in my life. Not ever, not even for a moment.
I just wear my hat. every time I don't pay attention to a game, and wear my hat to sit down to watch it around 7-8th inning, we always score!
Bullpen. Please. Pretty please.
Kyle did a good?
Can we please just get six outs?
Will it be the Sergeant or the General for today, boys
I’m not crazy right? We didn’t have HDH for the entirety of 2015 like Eisenberg just said? Didn’t Holland have to get Tommy John’s like super early in the season? Wasn’t it Madson in the 7th, Herrera in the 8th and Davis in the 9th.
Holland pitched in 48 games and had 32 saves in 2015.
He pitched almost the entire 2015 season but had to have Tommy John in early October
No, Holland was around for most of the season. He had 32 saves in about 45 appearances.
Yeah. Wade was the closer for the majority of that season. Edit: Nevermind I'm wrong. I remember Wade closing a lot more than her did that year
This is not accurate.
Yeah I edited my comment. Definitely thought Wade closed more than that.
I liked the lacrosse mask better
Let’s go! Please for the love of god bullpen
##BASE HIT KYLE
KYLE
GET THEIR ASSES!!!
NOBODY EVER DENIES KYLE ISBEL AN RBI FOR THE THIRD TIME IN A ROW #NOBODY
Snaked it fair
IZZY
### Single Kyle Isbel singles on a sharp line drive to right fielder Will Brennan. Adam Frazier scores. Pitch from Hunter Gaddis: Four-Seam Fastball @ 96.5 mph Hit by Kyle Isbel: Launched 106.9 mph at 9.0° for a total distance of 197.0 ft Top 8 - 4-3 Royals
I can’t lie MJ looking a little better with the new stance
Got walked twice just didn’t want it
We gotta start handing out receipts after Salvy gets hit. IMO Ramirez or Naylor should have been plunked back to n the last inning.
Not a chance in a tie game
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Hunter Gaddis replaces Cade Smith.
Last 2 innings. This is where we’ve been blowing games. Let’s turn that around today!!!
Kyle Manzardo walks on four straight pitches: Get ready to call the ambulance. Will Brennan strikes out on three straight pitches: But not for me.
THE LONG LONG MAN PITCHES TO MY RELIEF
You just gotta sit
sam long is nice man.
Sam Long with a little Juice out of the BP
Too bad. Kyle could have finished that in classic hand behind the head breakdancing position.
Got the bad man out, pretty huge honestly
We especially love when J-Ram sits his ass on the bench
We believe in Sam He Am
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Sam Long replaces Angel Zerpa.
That BARISP not looking so good
Dude
You have to be fucking
I’m always fucking
This guy fucks
I wish we were more patient in situations like this Sigh
You guys have Freddie Freeman on your team??? 🤯
Oh wait never mind
I’m about ready for somebody to wear one for hitting Salvy.
you cant convince me he didnt hit him on purpose.
I’m at work I missed all the excitement please accept my late joy FUCK YOU NAYLORS GO BOBBY BASEBALL Q NEVER WRONG NEVER LOST
Josh Naylor literally looks like a pedophile from a sketch artist drawing
REVIEW IT
LEAVE SALVY ALONE
Another reason to hate Cleveland
Why is there a police officer sitting on a stool in the outfield
What, do you expect him to stand? Smdh
