It's June 1st. Here the Royals are at 23-27. They've managed just 2 wins in their last 10. With their heavy inter-division slate through the end of May this was a date I thought we be a revealing one as far as where they are as a team. It is. They're nowhere, and headed in the wrong direction.

What a great way to start the series. I thought KC was dead. No way they do this off Kerry Wood, no matter how badly he has struggled. No way they were gonna put up 3 runs in the bottom of the 9th. And they didn't. They scored 4.

They just keep limping along. The opportunity to beat up on bad pitching. The opportunity to play a last place team, for 4 games, at home. The opportunity to retake sole position of 1st place.
Oh, the opportunities...

The last place Orioles are coming to town for 4. The Royals find themselves tied for 1st. They have their top 3 starters going, and the O's staff has given up the most runs in baseball. What could possibly go wrong?

Zack Greinke was drafted by the Royals with the 6th pick in the 2002 Amateur Draft. This was the draft covered in such high detail in Michael Lewis' book, Moneyball. You remember, the one where Billy Beane "figured out" a new way to build baseball teams. Stay away from high schoolers, love sabremetrics, the whole thing. After Zack's start last night I took a look at that draft, and the 1st round was loaded with some serious talent. Jeremy Brown excluded.
