I didn’t not make it to a game this year for the first time in a few decades. I may not make it next year either.
Everyone deserves a second chance I guess. Let’s hope for better results than the last time he managed. |

Well, if Matheny lays as big an egg as I expect he will, it’s probably the end for him and Dayton Moore. So there’s that.
Hope it happens before Matheny ruins a bunch of young players/pitchers and before the team’s rep takes a hit that makes it harder to hire a quality GM. |

I'm willing to bet that if we had hired crackhead Ron Washington and his special assistant drunk Josh Hamilton, they'd do a better job.

I’m simply pointing out Matheny won’t win anything here. So the folks predicting he will fail are virtually guaranteed to be right. It’ll be a shock if they aren’t!

You really are clueless. John Sherman and Dayton Moore benefit the most by this hire. They’ll watch their moron fan base spend the next 3+ years wailing about Matheny and blaming him for the poor records, when in fact it’s Dayton Moore’s fault entirely. And in the offhand chance a miracle occurs where we turn into Tampa Two? Even better! They made a gutsy hire fans hated - and were vindicated. |

Also, Gordon does it again. Number 7. Only one behind Frank White.

Perspective is funny, isn’t it?
Gordon was hyped as the next Brett. But really, he was the next Frank White (plus a little more offense. White doesn’t have anything to match Gordon’s 2011-2015 span). |

Some interesting predictions there from a baseball prospectus guy. If Strasburg goes to the Padres that team will make some serious noise though. |

Did I read that Grifol is staying with the team on Matheney's staff as a part of the entire staff coming back, sans Sveum or were they that specific? I'm trying to find the article where I thought they mentioned that.

Don’t everyone line up at once to buy season tickets with the prospect of Tanner Roark and Sergio Romo leading the 2020 Royals to a World Series title. |
