**Saturday, April 6th Royals/White Sox GDT**
 
Gonna be a windy game! Wacha on the bump.

ChiefsCountry 04-06-2024 05:32 PM

Could this be the Royals best starting pitching rotation since 1994? That was David Cone, Kevin Appier, Flash Gordon and Mark Gubicza.

PHOG 04-06-2024 05:35 PM

3 up, 3 down

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 05:38 PM

Wacha cruising so far. Rotation ERA Update: 1.35 thru 53.1 IP. Unreal.

PHOG 04-06-2024 05:51 PM

Wacha just struck out the side, around a walk.

Yeah, he looks pretty sharp. Unfortunately the Royals have let Flexen get into an equally solid groove after a bit of a shaky first.

IowaHawkeyeChief 04-06-2024 05:56 PM

Dang, starting pitching with another good start.

PHOG 04-06-2024 06:00 PM

3 up, 3 down...now let's get some runs.

PHOG 04-06-2024 06:08 PM

Ohhh Mr. Velasquez :doh!:

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 06:09 PM

Goddammit. Another promising inning goes up in smoke with Velasquez daydreaming and Hamspon watching strike 3.

PHOG 04-06-2024 06:18 PM

Wacha's dealing again, 7 Ks 2 hits....

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 06:18 PM

Obligatory rotation ERA update: 1.28 in 56.1 IP. This is nuts.

MAHOMO 4 LIFE! 04-06-2024 06:26 PM

Vinnie needs to be benched

dlphg9 04-06-2024 06:30 PM

I like this starting pitching staff right now for sure.

What good would bitching him do? He's a good enough hitter that he will break out of this slump. It's not gonna last much longer.

Pablo 04-06-2024 06:33 PM

Starting staff is legit.

Scratch a ****ing run or two across here boys

ChiefsCountry 04-06-2024 06:36 PM

MJDONG!!!

dlphg9 04-06-2024 06:36 PM

Salvy is crushing the ball right now. Not as much as Bobby, but no one is crushing it like Bobby. **** yeah Melendez!

Pablo 04-06-2024 06:36 PM

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

MAHOMO 4 LIFE! 04-06-2024 06:36 PM

MJ DONG!!

PHOG 04-06-2024 06:37 PM

A little help but we'll take it. LMAO

Pablo 04-06-2024 06:37 PM

He pushed it over the fence with the glove!!

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 06:37 PM

Yessssss!!!! There we go!!! Salvy and MJ!!!!

MAHOMO 4 LIFE! 04-06-2024 06:38 PM

Switch MJ and Vinnie in the order

Yeah, if that poor bastard isn't a midget, he probably makes that catch, though it was tailing...

dlphg9 04-06-2024 06:39 PM

MJ has been looking legit since half way through last season.

We're less than 10 games into the season, bud. Slow down a bit.

Crazy good. If we can have someone step up as a closer, this team will be tough.

How the hell did I miss that we picked up Wacha? He went to high school locally here.

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 06:46 PM

Let's get some insurance! C'mon fellas!

PHOG 04-06-2024 06:47 PM

Woot woot! 3-0

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 06:47 PM

I'll take it!!!

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 06:49 PM

Man... how would that feel having a stadium rhythmically chanting your name?

PHOG 04-06-2024 06:51 PM

I think he maybe was trying just a little too much, but why not.

MAHOMO 4 LIFE! 04-06-2024 06:54 PM

Vinnie absolutely blows

PHOG 04-06-2024 06:54 PM

I must say Vinnie looks lost right now.

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 06:55 PM

Okay gang... It's bullpen time, which also means, it's diaper time. Go ahead and get those Depends ready and standing by.

Mecca 04-06-2024 06:59 PM

Vinnie looks like he's not comfortable after the shoulder injury. May still be bothering him or he's still working back to where he was.

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 07:03 PM

Man... double plays have been our best friend so far this year.

Jerok 04-06-2024 07:11 PM

Division looks SO gettable. Let's not waste thimese opportunities. Get Vinnie down to the minors for some confidence. Idk if he has options left but he can't be that high in the lineup

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 07:20 PM

Poor Beni...

GabyKeepsMeWarm 04-06-2024 07:22 PM

And that's the ballgame!!! Woohoo!!!!

PHOG 04-06-2024 07:22 PM

Winner winner 3 hit shutout !

IowaHawkeyeChief 04-06-2024 07:23 PM

First time since 4/9/22 when they were 2-0.

Stewie 04-06-2024 07:37 PM

I was watching the White Sox feed. Steve Stone is still doing color on the TV broadcast. I had to look it up. Dude is 76 years old. Still calls a good game.

The WGN games back in the day when a Royals game wasn't very much on TV was always cool.

Holmes, what comes right before 2-0?

AussieChiefsFan 04-06-2024 07:57 PM

When was the last time the Royals had a winning record??

I wish we could play the White Sox every day

lewdog 04-07-2024 07:19 AM

Mods, can we have the filter change White Sox to White Sux for the rest of the year?
