I've never taken you as a quitter but the start of this year was damn close for you.

Hard to say Judge doesn't deserve it if the Yankees win their division. BWJ needs to keep it up and the Royals to win their division to have a chance. The amazing thing about Judge is hes like 285 lbs roaming around the CF and he's not even bad at it.

Alot of credit has to be given to them for how they bullt their SP (obviously).Everyone they signed or traded for turned to gold. It was easy to see Ragans would be good but the stars aligning for Lugo, Wacha and Singer bouncing back. Even Marsh was good for a while and Lorenzen has been very good and hes a 5th starter. Im so giddy. |

I went from:
“Can you keep me interested until the Chiefs start camp?” To “Can you keep me interested until the first preseason game?” To “Can you keep me interested to the first regular season game?” To “Can…you win the Central?” I hope this keeps going. The next few questions are a lot more fun. |

Have a really tough schedule to finish out the year. If we make the playoffs we definitely earned it

Completely random question: Do the Royals have a statue of Denny Matthews at The K? Quick google search leads me to believe not, but this seems like a travesty. This board needs more options on where to meet to settle grievances and Denny Matthews is more than worthy.

In 2015 at the world series parade, I was in the front row with my friend Gary and Derrek. Derrek passed away in 2016, and we three guys were the three muskateers of going to Royals games. We went to games as friends since 1974; went to the parade together in 1985 and again in 2015. Derrek detested Denny for some reason. Said he was just a stat regurgitator; had no real personality like Harry Caray or Bob Ueker, and was in the Baseball HOF for "perfect attendance." We argued about Denny for years and years. So I tell you this because, during the parade, a truck comes rolling down with a bunch of the Royals employees, and walking along side is Ryan Levebre and Denny. I'm yelling at Denny and waving at him. He comes right over to us, and makes a beeline to the first person in our group -Derrek- Denny sticks out his hand and says to Derrek -thanks for coming out, you fans are the greatest- something like that. Denny shook his hand and Derrek was speechless. Gary and I just laughed and laughed. One of my favorite memories of the parade. |

The thing about Denny that people underrate even now is he's very smart and has a good feel for the game. He'll never get credit for that because he's not someone who gets super excited. There have been times even this year where he'll pick up that the momentum has shifted, or you shouldn't have walked that guy, this batter is going to be trouble, etc. and you're kind of like "okay whatever" but sure enough he'll be right and either the Royals will come back or they'll blow the game. That kind of thing.
