When I read that Lance Zawadzki was among the Royals’ roster cuts, I was prepared to make the argument that he should be retained as an organizational guy for another season. In my mind, he was a pretty darn good ballplayer. The thing is, most of my exposure to the Storm Chasers this year came …

I was on Facebook earlier today, and up in the corner of one page was a “This Date in 2009” post, allowing me to travel back in time and see what I was up to in 2009, my first senior year of college. This was my status that day: Lots of the guys from those …
