  1. I'd also throw in Cain and Escobar as well. Their defense is legit.
  2. Danny Duffy in a bear costume. Kind of funny. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LcrWsgOZ-g It'll be visible at 0:15
  3. Moose Tacos..... mmmm....
  4. He has done well in that aspect. Makes it much easier when you have cyborg relievers in Herrera, Davis, and Holland. It would be cool of Ned would start his best starter though. Danny Duffy is so good and they're not even using him. Step in and steal him please Theo. Yeah, I agree that Duffy should be pitching, but he has struggled with his mechanics lately. The Royals believe he is having trouble throwing strikes from the windup, and I have noticed this too as well, watching on the TV. So Duffy is "simplifying" his motion by going on the stretch instead of the windup.

  6. Oh, and Wade Davis, man. Wade. Fricking. Davis.
  7. I don't know if it's just me, but it seems like in playoff time, the quality of the home plate umpire has been horrendous.
  8. Eric Freakin' Hosmer.
  9. I don't think I ever recall seeing a starting or reliever pitcher that has this as his ERA+.... 549. :shock:
  10. That's so Rube Baker like type of a throw.
  11. Got to mention (just my opinion) that Theo/Cubs made the right time on trading away Hammel. Since he joined the A's, he has been awful, or so it seems..... Since joining the A's, his WHIP is a horrendous 1.828 and a WAR of -0.6.
  12. Yep. He's been pretty dominant. 466 ERA+ 0.877 WHIP 13.7 K/9 2.8 WAR http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/d/daviswa01.shtml (Not sure if it included today's game)
  13. Not a Gif. but still Cubs related. https://mtc.cdn.vine.co/r/videos/B371AA25101110776455174168576_2cc14600131.2.1.6742980774194619735.mp4?versionId=EwcAr7BDel2t6F.1castQaE.g9k5v0Hc Nice catch by the old man.
  14. Didn't he go like 50-some innings without giving up an extra-base hit? I remember Rany Jazayerli tweeting about it, but I'm not sure the total amount of innings. Pretty close to that, I'm sure. Either way, he has been pretty much almost untouchable.
  15. Wade Davis is... just flat out nasty. ERA+ 458 WHIP 0.894 K/9 13.6 http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/d/daviswa01.shtml
  16. Man... Royals in first place? In August? http://cdn1.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/631476/863245269.0.gif
  17. Yeah, that was good. I literally lol'ed.
  18. Not really a weird stat, but more of a dominating stat, I suppose. The Royals are 49-1 when they have the lead after 7 innings.
  19. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v39/SwedeCarlson/Funnies/Gifs/RRnhhqW_zpsdef931ad.gif
  20. I remember Vance Law. Thought he was going to be awesome and with that last name, (I was a kid) it was "Laying the Law down!" I vaguely remember the "Long arm of the Law" as well.
  21. Same here for the most part. RIP. Ditto here. I liked him, and I always thought of him (this was when I was a kid of course) as a angry grandpa with a big chunk of chaw on his mouth.
