The Kansas City Royals have proven THEY ARE LAST YEAR’S ROYALS…
Down early in the season by seven games to the Chicago White Sox and looking lost, the Royals have found themselves and then some. Just three weeks later, they’re in first place with a sweep of the White Sox at home and three straight come from behind late inning wins.
Wow!
Once again the team to beat in the American League is Kansas City.
We all had our doubts a few weeks ago. How could we not?
The Moose is out for the season. Alex Gordon is on the DL. And now Sal Perez is hurt.
But it doesn’t matter, the Royals called up three young players, Cheslor Cuthbert, Brett Eibner and Whit Merriefield and – Oh, my God – they look like three potential All Stars already.
In fact Eibner had two hits in the ninth inning the other day to lead the Royals to a 7 run, bottom of the ninth inning comeback, including the game winning final hit. He’s batting over .400 early, Whit is near .400 and now Palo Orlando is red hot hitting near .400.
Eric Hosmer is clearly the superstar of the Royals and team leader.
Hosmer has nine homers and finally will go over 20 for the season and likely enter into MVP talk for the American League if he continues. He’s also batting .315 with 30 RBI’s. Lorenzo Cain is on fire with seven homers and getting his average back up towards .300. Perez got hurt but will be back soon and he too is on fire with seven homers.
The Royals have turned it all around in a hurry.
They are 7-3 in their last 10 games. It also helps that really nobody in their division is a strong team.
And now that we have seen the entire division, only KC has the talent to compete for another run at a title. Chicago is just OK, no real strong hitting attack, decent pitching but the Royals have their number. The Indians are aging and so are the Tigers. The Twins were suppose to contend but as of today are baseball’s worst.
Yes, I was starting to think the team had lost its edge and was in trouble.
Even then however, I said they would worst case be a wild card. Not now. They are the real deal. You can plan on the post season again.
And hey, how about that Brett Eibner?
Not only can Eibner hit, he might be MLB’s best looking player.
Be careful Eric Hosmer, now the ladies have many reasons to go watch the Royals besides their being a great team.
They’re a team of hotties – Oh, my!
I’m sure there will be some more ups and downs but I look for this team to have over 90 wins, and easily win the division.
I was dead wrong.
Ned Yost and the Royals had some bullets in the minors and this team may be very good for years to come even if they lose a couple guys.
Wow.
Eibner, craig, EiBner.
Eisner is a guy who used to be CEO of Disney.
Uh I never ever wrote Eisner, Hearne made that little error and I see why, Eisner bought the rights to KING OF STING…so we had several stories on the Eisners…easy error.
HEY GLAZA…..
Your word are and hero trump are falling apart.
Reuters/Ipsos poll (one of the few reliable polls) has Hillary
up 11 points in national poll against dumpster.
I will be looking for a juicy fat possum for you to eat cause
I’m sure you’re tired of eating crow so ofter.
Roadkill….just add a little dr. pepper and IT TASTES LIKE
CHICKEN! IT’S OVER DUDE!
Dear Glaza:
This is the hundredth time you had to eat crow. If it wasn’t your b.s. about books
and movies and pilots and clint eastwood and Eisner and boycotting the chiefs
and counting out the royals 3 years in a row and the continued political bull sh*t
you put out concerning the white supremacist/hateful/vile/disgusting/liar/con man/
cheat (I’m not talk about glaza…I’m talking about trump) I would forgive your
stupidity (even though you did bring in Eddie Munster direct from Lebanon,Missouri
to play your “world famous” comedy club (hahahaha)!
And who was the first commentator on kcc to call you out for being the idiot when
it came to sports….IT WAS HARLEY!
HARLEY WAS RIGHT AGAIN. AND WHO SAID YOU WOULD HAVE TO EAT
CROW? HARLEY! WHO SAID THE ROYALS WOULD BE IN FIRST PLACE
BY MEMORIAL DAY RIGHT HERE ON KCC? Harley, of course.
Who has picked every political race on kcc? HARLEY!
So before you go shooting your mouth off on a continuous basis…saying that
people who don’t use their real name on this tinyblog don’t know anything…I
suggest you STFU!
In fact I suggest you be relieved of your duties on kcc as sports writer and
go back to being the head of the STOP section of kcc. STOP STANDS FOR
“strippers/ti@@ies/orgasms and pu$$y” and that’s what y ou know best.
You know nothing else and after ahundred comments pointing out that
you know nothing in just a few months you’ve been forced to EAT CROW.
But thanks to god you didn’t have to eat crow every time you were wrong or
you would have grown wings and a beak by now.
BUT NOW YOU JINXED US. SAYING THE ROYALS WILL WIN THIS YEAR
HAS JINXED US AFTER YOUR PREVIOUS STUPID COMMENTS THAT HARLEY
POINTED OUT WITH PRECISION AND FACTS.
So please…if you have extra time I’m sure there are some strip joints you can
attend to find the love of your life. til then…STFU.
I love you and your funny stories but glaza one thing you are not versed in is
baseball/football/politics/community affairs/city issues/the middle east/foreigh
relations (except with Hot chocolate who came from a foreign land) and just about
any topic hearne can dream of.
But next time you make a mistake that Harley points out and proves you wrong
again and again…you will not eat crow. Chances are you are tired of eating crow
on kcc (ecept if its Dr. Pepper crow) and nexttime Harley will find you some
‘possum road kill on Alternate 69 to eat.
Have fun at woodside. Tell whit n the boys hello from Harley.
Your friend/confidant/advisor/and lifelong bud:
Harley, the great one!
Hey guys, I have a confession of sorts…
I had dinner Saturday night at Stanford’s and ordered the Dr. Prpper ribs and – THEY WERE EXCELLENT! My date said her meal was top notch as well. And wildly inexpensive!!!
heard same thing….now glaza needs to compete with the
restof bars on royals nites….something new and different…
and if he can afford to (I know some of these comedians are
probably charging big bucks now) bring in some big names
at least once a month….he’ll kill it.
theres so much expansion going on in joco and so much
population growth that glaza needsto let all these people
know he’s there!!!!
Ithink people don’t know he’s at 119…but he’s got a huge
population to draw from that wantsomething new and fun
to do…..
Glad you’re on a date hearne….see things are going well.
If you need any names of hot single women contact Harley!!!!!!!!!!
Ilove stanfords flower pot bread…I said earlier if they
packaged that and sold it….they’d never have to work with
eddie munster again!!!!!! (lol)
The flower pot bread was so-so (to be honest)
I’ve decided to take over the kitchen at
glazas place.
The flower pot bread must be perfect or
else!
It wasn’t necessarily bad…
It’s just that in the days gone by it came fresh and hot out of the over and the one we had felt like it was made like the day before or something. The entrees were good though!
Oh and one more important fact for hearne/southy/wislon/whiney/kerowackjob/
mike t/chuckles the lonely ditch digger/the mad stomper/and all the rest of
the losers who doubted Harley at any time:
HARLEY IS THE GREATEST! GREATER THAN ALI (LOL)! GREATEST
ANALYST IN THE NATION. GREATEST WHEN IT COMES TO FACTS/
STATS/ANALYSIS AND PREDICTING THE FUTURE.
NO ONE COMES CLOSE.
AND DON’T YOU EVER FORGET THAT! OR ELSE!
No important facts for moi? I feel unloved.
You can have my spot dude.
I actually share his political view for the most part but he trashes me as well.
stomp…your articles are too long (lol).
good to have at least one other smart/intelligent/
factual writer on here besides myself.
Moose isn’t out for the season with a broken thumb. He’s out because of a torn ACL.
AGAIN YES I know again our editor made that comment not me, he had a broken thumb then got the torn ACL in the collision I know. Sorry bout that.
Why don’t you tell that editor if he can’t get his facts straight to leave his paws off your copy.
On this day we pay homage to those brave men and women who have paid the
ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and ability to live in peace.
However…as has been pointed out by several former CIA directors those who support
Mr. Dump and his hatred for muslims has been an increasing support stream for
more muslims to join the jihad against America and it’s allies.
That includes Glaza and chuckles the lonely guy who have used this blog to
express their support for the hate of muslims and most other minority groups
not only in this nation but around the world.
Key military people say people like glaza and chuckles only fan the fires of hate
and only ADD to the recruitment of muslims and other terrorists around the
world.
Recently one CIA head said that these types of people really want a war against
the 1.6 trillion muslims. And their hateful rhetoric/their vile angry tone of support
for the fuhrer Dump only adds steam to the recruiting efforts of muslim groups when
they say “look…the americans and their allies want to destroy our people…we must
fight them to sustain our culture” when goons like glaza and chuckles and
even kerowackjob, outwardly support this horrific/vile/disgusting xenophobic/
narcistic hate filled con man.
Did you read this mans 2012 taxes….spent millions on therapy to combat his
problem concerning being a habitual liar. don’t believe me…check out his 2012
tax returns online!!!!!!!!!!! They’re right there to see!
So you are aiding and abetting those who wish to destroy us. 99% of the muslims
want to live in peace. You three want to fight another war.
NO WAY BOYS.
I’m sure the only guy who probably served, Chuck, can tell us some horrible
stories.
p.s….today is your day chuck…THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE!
Harley
I think Hearne leaves all your typos in (Eisner? Palo? Homer?) just to generate more comments. But damn, CG — get your facts straight.
Mike Moustakas is out for the season with a torn ACL — He was on the 15 Day DL earlier in the season for a broken thumb.
Alex Gordon has a broken scaphoid in his wrist.
LANCE AS MUCH AS YOU WANT ME TO MAKE THOSE MISTAKES I MADE NONE OF THEM, and usually its Hearne who never admits error…I don’t know if he does it on purpose or not…like with Moose I wrote ‘moose has a broken thumb, now ANOTHER injury and is out for the year’ hearne tunred that into thumb out for the year…never wrote Eisner, or Homer….he did…he changes my stories with his own ideas some are good but then in a hurry makes those errors…I make some of course as well…Hearne according to him makes no mistakes…strange…so it ain’t me babe.
I really don’t think your editor is gonna appreciate the defamation you’re costantly heaping on him. You are essentially saying he is completely incompetent at editing in that he doesn’t fix errors that you put in but creates errors in your correct text. What a boob
Well…if the shoe fits…
CG — It’s your by-line — You can’t fault us for thinking you made the errors.
If Hearne is doing this (and he seems to be doing it only to you), send me your articles. I’ll proofread them.
GLAZA PLUS DUMPSTER = FACT DENIERS
Glayzer Dumpster.
one other thought is that Merrifield, Eibner and Butera are – SO FAR – filling in nicely. and they do give you hope. but keep in mind they’ve only been ‘up’ for a few games. very small sample size. we don’t really know how good (or not good) they can be. I’d say manage your expectations; winning the division isn’t a lock just because we showed some remarkable grit in those come-from-behind wins. remember — we couldn’t hit their starters.
just stay focused on winning series’ and keep losing teams losing and the post-season will take care of itself.
but damn sure fun.
LET ME EXPLAIN BASEBALL STRATEGY TO YOU MIKEY:
because glaza has no idea how to work a game and why the royals won
those 3 games.
Starters today get very few complete games. That means they usually get to
pitch maybe 90 pitches/100 pitches….sometimes as many as 120pitches
per game. then they turn the game over to middle reliever and then the
closer.
However pitchers like sale go maybe 7 innings before pulled and mid
relivers come into eat up innings. Remember…when sale left sox were
up 2 runs. So the royals strategy is to run up pitch counts….get the
pitcher to throw those high numbers and get into the opponents bullpen.
If you can do that consistently you will win games.
So the royals get to the sox bullpen which I believe was right behind
kc in rbi average.
So royals get the closer for sox and hit him for 7 runs nd win the game.
And they get the heart of their order up usually twice against those relievers so they get to know how they pitch.
Royals usually get to see a starter 3 times per game….and the more times
they see them (especially early inseason) the better theyhit against
them.
So the royals never give up. they just don’t know how to lose.
they’re in thezone right now. Nothing can stop them….even injuries to their
top 3 players!!!!
So while glaza is playing with his ___________ thinking he knows
baseball…he’s wrong again.
Where’s REALLY? tHIS GUYSHUT UP GLAZA GOOD IN HIS
COMMENTS….BUT IT WAS HARLEY WHO WAS THE FIRST TO
WRITE THAT GLAZAS STORY WAS FULL OF BULL.
AND LOOK….HARLEY SAID ROYALS IN FIRST PLACE BY
MEMORIAL DAY…AND HARLEY IS RIGHT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND
AGAIN………..
HARLEY IS A CHAMP.
HOPE TO SEE REALLY’S TAKE ON WHAT HAPPENED.
HE’S IN TUNE WITH WHAT’S HAPPENING…HOPE TO SEE HIS
OPINION OF WHAT HARLEY PREDICTED (HARLEY WAS THE ONLY
PERSON ANYWHERE IN THE NATION THAT CAME OUT WITH THE
PREDICTION OF FIRST PLACE BY END OF MONTH….!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Once again the story is the story…. The Royals are playing well. Remember I cover whats going on NOW. They were playing like crap, everyone agreed 7 games back,cold bats, poor starting pitching and looking unenthused…now they are on it…that’s the story. It’s not a prediction its whats going on. The new guys are playing well, the division is weak and its the Royals to take. Simple as that. As for a few errors, I guess in redoing the story a bit Hearne got in a hurry and made a few errors it happens. Not the end of the world. I know a few people like to jump in and make THAT the issue.
I was on with Trump early, almost nobody else was…kinda looks like I was right on that one…and I do think he wins it all…I’m sure many of you do now. Enjoy the holiday.
…the question I’m having now is will Trumpster the Dumgpster make it
to November?
I’m not sure….he’s just started getting the heat that he didn’t get in
the primaries….I don’t know if the old guy can stand the heat he’s
about to get and it’s going to increase.
He’s broke in June and July…..so he’s about to be nuked by the dems
after june 7.
He’s looking tired and old glaze….he may not make it to November.
He’s used to “yes” men and
“you’re thegreatest”…and when you can the political press “ignorant
liars” ya think they’re going to help you in the media….no way.
Trump campaign goes into death spiral.
He’d better get a billiontogether real quick…he’s gonna need it to
win. If not…he still has a great life. why he would take all this stuff is
beyond me. He’s a liar and a conman and everyday its a different story.
ROYALS STAY HOT….I think its last year again. Division RACE will be over soon.
you switch positions/opinions more often than the dumpster/trumpsteer.
Glaza…check on the flower pot bread….that’s your trademark item.
ps….your boy trump is broke….has assets but can’t get them converted
to cash cause he over stated the values……dems willoutspend him
3 or 4 to 1. Big trouble for the orange man.
Craig,
You live in the moment too much. What’s true today, may not be true tomorrow. You’re sports takes are much like the Wall Street traders that simply bend which ever way the wind blows. You know, the same guys losing their ass on oil prices cause they thought it was going to stay at $100 per barrel forever just because it had been that way for awhile. Suddenly, all the new fracking technology came online, and oil took a giant crap. The same reason I wasn’t worried when the Royals were 7 games back, is the same reason I’m not going to call the race as over in the next month. It’s a LOOOOOOONG season.
It is..and injuries could take the Royals down. However their division is so weak and they just have way too much young talent..nobody else has that and backups as well…Houston does to some extent but not the offense and no Wade Davis and not in Royals division. Again Cleveland and Tigers aging and window not open, Sox just don’t have enough..you’ve seen them. Twins well…so its the Royals even if they only won like 88 games…you are right anything can happen, but they are in a groove and will be there most of the year…I think. By the way when things were bad I didn’t count them out for the same reason..no challengers…and the Royals do have that young talent…Cain and Hosmer are just killers now…
stop the b.s. glaze.
I need to wear boots when around you.
you’re a jinx….stay away from the royals and
chiefs.
One bad prediction after another every time you
post here and on the other blog.
so STFU and do what your partner talked about..
make sure the flower top bread is being made
right.
Leave the baseball/sports/politics etc. to Harley.
You make kcc look bad.
Take a long vacation to Hollywood and visit your
buddies eastwood and Eisner.
And if the Royals hit a rough patch, they’ll be done…you think. And then if they get hot again, they’ll be hot for the rest of the year… you think. Glaze, if I want to talk to someone with your emotional stamina (which isn’t built for a 162 game season in any sport) I’ll ask a 6 year old girl her opinion on the matter.
