That's the Chiefs.

Royals are in a down cycle. Already liking what I'm seeing from the farm - if they're competing again by 2021, I really have no complaints at all.

Are the Royals in a down cycle or was the two-year run over the past 20 to 25 years an uptick?

Judging from GMDM's tenure, that was an up cycle/up-tick, and now he's back to the reload/rebuild phase.

If we don't start seeing gains by 2021 it'd benefit us to start thinking about moving on.

I’d say it was more of a 4-5 year uptick. 2013-2017 was the contention window.

It took seven years to build to that point (and five to get the guys they used for that window to the majors).

You’d hope to shave 2-3 years off the build/re-build timeframe at this point, but not sure that’s realistic.

I think it was easily 5 years. They've been in the playoff chase each of the last 5 years. They faded a little bit earlier last year but it was the end of July and they were in great position. That's a pretty decent run.

Gonna have a great draft pick this year. Come on Dayton move some guys let's gets some pieces.

Duncan out of your list I like Casas the best if he pans out sounds like he could be something Hosmer never was

Enjoy the season bud were going to get a very good pick and Dayton isn't going to **** this one up.

Watching the Red Sox and Yankees game. Carlos Febles is the 3rd base coach for the Red Sox now. Yes that Carlos Febles. I had no idea.

It’s gonna be awesome.

I can do without the random giant parking lots in the middle of Eastern Jack.

The great news is this is the best Ned has felt about a 3-7 team.

Didn’t take that long for Houston did it?
