After our start this year, Resigning Billy got quite an endorsement from Kings of Kauffman

I've also seen scattered "endorsements" from fans on Twitter and FB. Not many, but enough that it surprises me.

The Royals should just bring back Billy Butler. I at least liked him. He can't hit any worse than the current option.

I can't find the facebook post on the Royals fanpage that inspired me to post this, but I'll keep looking for it. I can't even imagine Billy returning to the Royals after Mike Sweeney publicly trashed him after the great Valencia/Billy fight of 2016. Can't imagine what the conversation in an elevator would be like between them, especially since Sweeney said his sentiments were shared by the entire FO.

Billy Butler must be a gigantic asshole or something. He's really not that bad. He's probably better than Brandon Moss. He's like 31 years old? His last year he hit .284, .760 OPS.
