Indeed. I'd love to sweep the Royals as a small measure of exorcising KC from my memory.AL East looking tough this year... again. Toughest Division in Baseball but we can do it again, just I really want to stay away from first round byes forever now, in Football and Baseball lol.
They're good again, so we'll probably be in for a fightIndeed. I'd love to sweep the Royals as a small measure of exorcising KC from my memory.
Sure enough. An interesting fact with KC I heard on the broadcast yesterday is that they have 14 new players on the 40 man roster that were acquired thru trades and FA in the off-season. That's quite a big change. Worst to first with the change. Rubber game today...They're good again, so we'll probably be in for a fight
Yeah, it’s by no means a negative at this point of his career. TBH I always thought it was a reach that he would be ready this soon.He didn't play yesterday. He was back in today and made a nice play or two at 2nd and a hard line-drive out to 2nd batting in the 6th? I don't know. You're right, he's basically an out, but I think they have to extend it a little longer. I think he goes down, but maybe not before another home stand... especially if he continues to struggle at the plate. But I don't think we should be worrying about it too much. He'll get it straight, but it might take a trip to AAA to do it.

I get that impression too about AAA pitching, but I think he's gonna have to at least make some other solid contact on the regular or it's hard to keep him penciled in daily. I think they want him playing everyday, but they can't really do that if he continues being an automatic out. And if they put him in a rotation, that limits his chances. He plays everyday in AAA and he's available if there's an issue or opportunity.My thoughts on Holliday are that he isn't going to learn to hit major league pitching in AAA. Gotta let him take his lumps and learn from it. Had a hard hit ball today at least although it went right to the defender.

The reset has worked out well for The Milkman, no reason to think the same wouldn’t work for Holliday.I get that impression too about AAA pitching, but I think he's gonna have to at least make some other solid contact on the regular or it's hard to keep him penciled in daily.
