I found it a little hard to believe that Singer was throwing "good pitches" in the fifth inning as Matheny stated considering the first six batters saw a total of EIGHT pitches. As Josh Donaldson famously said about Edinson Volquez during a contentious start in Toronto in '15, "it was some good hittin' out there."
Keller, thanks, for the video: review his land foot, it needs to move 3" to 5" to the left, reason, this will allow: fastball and slider lower in strike zone, his finish balance is holding his follow thru back, Bubic, pitched at 35% of his ability, agree with you his last 2 FBS at the end of 5th inning is a true look at his ability and guess what: Bubic pitched backward: led with change-up, not establishing his FB first...Heasley: question: where has that BREAKING Ball been, again, established this pitch, let's see what the next start brings....Ben Wierzbicki. ps keep up the good work you are doing....
So I watched a bit of the Brewers/Padres game on Saturday with Ashby going against Gore. I came away extremely impressed with both. Stuff, pitch location, sequencing, poise. I know they were highly touted prospects but my point is they were so far ahead of Lynch it was quite amazing. And it was one sample size, but they were light years ahead of Lynch, Singer, Bubic, and Kowar at this stage of development. To the point that I thought, this isn’t going to be good enough. lol….now, we have a small crop of them so hopefully some of them figure it out but the difference was quite a bit.

Since Royals management seem to care nothing of the fans wishes, and seem to want to extend our agony. Maybe its time to switch strategies. Instead of pleading with them, start a meme of they blew it completely on the rebuild.
Write stories and comments saying they need to trade everybody. Prospects and all current roster members. Time to fire everybody, since they can't even produce an average team. Tell them its time for a real rebuild, and admit they were complete failures on the most recent one.
If they see enough of that, maybe we can get them to try and prove us wrong and finally get rid of the all the dead weight. Push Sherman to finally put his foot down. Then maybe they will start bringing up who we want to see
I think Matheney could get a free trip to Las Vegas so they could take all his money. He is too much of a gambler, putting in pitchers late in the game who gave up 4 runs and left the Royals unable to recover. I get tired of hearing about how bad the players played and not putting enough blame on management and coaching. Every player has a bad game at some point and it is up to management to react to it. The fans and the players deserve better than they are getting.
I just read that Salvy reached out to ex-hitting coach Terry Bradshaw in an effort to get out of his slump. What are we doing here? If the players don't trust their current coaches, this franchise is in serious trouble.
As most, I'm perplexed why Vinnie Pasquantino has yet to be called up by the Royals. So, I looked at his splits and noticed that he's hitting 233 in night games. Could this a source of concern for the Royals? Besides him being slow footed and strictly a first basemen or DH I can see no other reason to not promote him immediately.

Santana sits, we win. Santana plays, we lose.
