Dozier has hit a HR in his last 7 of 8 games with a total of 9 HRs in an 8 game span - and he's gonna get another 3-4 PAs today.

You'd think that would remove the element of surprise, wouldn't you?

 

I'm surprised it doesn't...

It's hard to imagine how bad the bullpen would have been if it hadn't been an offseason priority.

So forty HR already if not for the do over game.  With 3 weeks left in the season, and September callup pitchers grooving 2-0 fastballs.

Man, if I were a Royals fan, watching my team for the past month on the bubble of playoff contention, I'd be livid that Dillon f-ing Gee was taking starts every 5th day. This guy couldn't crack OUR rotation.

We don't have enough room for another turd!

Great article on Dozier in Fangraphs. Basically, he's learned to hold off on pitches he doesn't hit well and whale at pitches he does hit well. Imagine what would happen if Rosario and Buxton learned that.

I get ya. Penile disfunction is a problem these days. Stay Hard, Stand Erect and Stay True. That's a good motto for victory!

Imagine there's no heaven

It's easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us only sky

Imagine all the people

Living for today... Aha-ah...

This is actually not far off. You remember Rafael Palmeiro doing ads for Viagra? One of the common side effects of overuse of steroids in males is atrophy of the gonads. It's not too often that an otherwise healthy man in his 30's has a problem that would make Viagra necessary. I'd call it a smoking gun but that image is pretty much the opposite of the actual situation.

I was thinking of that when I wrote it up. But honestly, I don't care about PEDs. Maybe BA is a candidate.

 

I am sure he is a suspect, but like all media these days, the spin doctors are out and causing chaos.

 

I miss the good old days, when box scores were solid and as a spectator things were pure. The scrutinization of American society is going to lead us down the road to ruin... if it has not already.
