I thought Perez was good on the first pitch but yeah, that's ridiculous. He wasn't missing last night.

Good thoughts for Lynch today; I also want to see him keep the pace he had in the Lou'. Keep the defense engaged and throw the pill.

And Man am I glad it looks like your Dozier optimism was spot on - me and every other Royals fan! Speaking of thoughts of every Royals fan - am I the only one who was uber-excited the skid was only five games lol?

Let's get this W and to .500!!!

Who had Collin Snider as the star of the pitching staff back in March?

Solid win last night. Thoughts on trading Hernandez? Feel like there is enough there for other teams to still want stuff wise….results were decent last year. His stuff is too good to not get the strikeouts. I still like him the best but man I don’t know why he can’t get more whiffs. The more I’m seeing of these young group the more I’m discouraged by the apparent lack of progress over the offseason. The 70-77 win predictions seem right on to me after the first 10 games or so. It’s time for Matheny to move Witt Jr out of the 2 or 3 spot as well. The talent is there an he’s going to be good….but I may be old school in thinking you should earn hitting in the middle of the order first.

Michael A. Taylor, an elite center fielder, maybe the best defender in baseball. Ben Wierzbicki

I have read several post game articles and the comments of those posts and not one mention of Taylor's run saving throw to home. Where's the love for the defense.

Hernandez: mechanical, if you noticed when throwing his Fastball, he was falling off to the 1st base side, thus his arm is not staying with his body, which left the Fastball up and fat for hitting and did the Twins "TEE OFF" . Instead of "FALLING OFF" to the 1st base side, plant the his NOSE in the catching mitt, Fastball will come down around the knees and Hernandez will be dominate and better control, almost unhittable and will pickup 3 mphs+ on the Fastball.
