I got a call this afternoon from Erin with the Royals. She said that, for soooome reason, I was one of the chosen bloggerpeople for the Digital Digest contest. So, yay! Now it’s time for a side-tangent! I haven’t written about this Digital Digest idea before, but I had mixed emotions on it. Craig at …

Late to the party: A Greinke reaction
Note: I have like 30 Zack Greinke-related Firefox tabs open right now. Because of real-life stuff, I haven’t had time to read very many, so I apologize in advance if I repeat anyone else’s points. Every trade has about a zillion angles. It’s probably a good idea to explore as many of them as possible, …

Francoeur is full of….
I should have posted this the other night, when it happened, but…here is a moment of gleeful mystery, brought to you by Firefox tabs. Here’s the actual story in the Star. Not nearly as much fun as the words *I* would have put there.

Jeff Francoeur a Royal: Deal with it
Well, we all saw that one coming. There’s not much I can say that won’t be said better by Royals Authority, Royals Review, Rany, Posnanski and others. What I have that the others might not is this .gif of GMDM from Jack Moore: This was going to happen at some point; we’ve all known it …

I spoke too soon.
Yesterday, I expressed a sort of admiration toward the Facebook Royals fans for their mostly non-crazy reactions to the DeJesus trade. Apparently they were only holding back because the trade hadn’t been officially posted on the Facebook page yet. …and here they come. I still stand by the careful, levelheaded (?) things I said in …

David DeJesus and the tepid reaction from the Face Books
I hopped on to the Royals’ Facebook page before dinner, hoping to pick out a bunch of hilarious quotes from Royals fans who perhaps aren’t as attentive as you all. I figured they’d have some extremely mockable things to say about David DeJesus being traded. Remember how much fun it was to do that with …

Congratulations Bruce Chen!
I have few things to say tonight, other than to be extremely happy for a very cool human being. My life has been vastly more entertaining with Bruce “C’MON CHEN” Chen in it, and I’m thrilled that his final start of this season could be like this. Nine innings, two hits, zero runs, two walks, …

Saves per win
After the Royals wrapped up win number 63 tonight, fans everywhere EXPLODED with joy. The Royals can’t lose 100! ….OK. The joy wasn’t that great. But it was a win for the team, and another save for Soria. That’s 41 saves for Soria in 63 wins for the team. Commenter Gus Zernial at Royals Review …

Tidbits: Disco, babies, etc.
– As you’ve perhaps heard, the Royals released Disco Hayes. Greg Schaum asked me to share some thoughts on his site, RoyalsProspects.com. You can go read that, if you wish. And comment and such, please. – My brother and his wife welcomed a beautiful baby girl into the world early this morning. (Did my brother …

Big day: Greinke wins and Hillman’s fired
Sometimes Zack Greinke pitches brilliantly and loses. Sometimes Zack Greinke pitches brilliantly and wins (but not this year). This was neither of those days, and Greinke won. Those eight strikeouts were excellent, but Greinke was hardly in his finest form today. He threw too many pitches, and he walked a few guys, and he had …
