I mostly follow the national league, i know sweeney is a solid player and so is ibanez, but are the royals going to contend? i know they've beat up on the tigers alot, but they also handled the sox who are tough.

Re: Royals, for real?
remember last season when Anaheim got off to like a 6-18 start, they won the world series, i think this is the opposite.. They have a few good ballplayers, Sweeney and Ibanez, but I also think they are in the weakest divsion out of the 6. The White Sox will probrably win that division, but not by much over Minnesota, and if Hunter ever starts hitting for MIN, then look out. I dont see the Royals having pitching good enough to outlast either CWS or MIN, and if they do correct me, they will never get by OAK's, BOS's, or NYY's pitching and offense -

Re: Royals, for real?
I agree with the rest of the above posters. But on the positive side, this start pretty much guarantee's at least a 75 win season in my opinion.Comment

Re: Royals, for real?
What are they now, like 13-2 or something..... what if they go off on a 2-13 run... chances of that happening are better than them winning more than 65 or 70 games this season....no pitching and good offense give you what they have had so far..... clutch hits when the pitchers failed them... look at all the game winning hits they've had.... no different then TB... none of there starters even have a win, but they have 5 or 6 wins, all in their last AB, or late inning clutch hits... that cant go on foreverComment

Ya, i think that might be the Sox's division this year, only if guys like Thomas, and Ordonez have big years. Thomas was once a shoe-in for the hall, now, he may end up having to pay admission just to visit.Comment
