Not that I can really see a better option in that lineup, but the idea of Aviles as our lead off hitter is chilling.  110 losses, here come the Royals.

Maybe it is because I am feeling real good right now.  So, given that, this could be a good year for the Royals, at least compared to the last few years.  I don't see a big disaster nor a year like 2003 but a year of 75 wins or more. 
I may be right.  I may be wrong.  But there is a lot of gray area in-between.

Not at all. Yesterday was just one game and there were a lot of positives--as well as the usual Royals negatives (2 errors on one play?  #-o  )

I agree with the previous assessment.

Nah.  The results of one game might make a difference at the end of a season but for now "it's just one game".

Well, now they are 2-1.  True, 3 games do not make a season in baseball but these two wins looked good in that they stayed in the game.  Even the loss was just a foul ball away from a win.

So still feeling good.

Great to see the team fight back in this series.  Granted, the Angels bullpen was horrendous, but still.  

And hey, back-to-back games where our rookie pitchers get their first major league win.  Crow yesterday.  And Tim Collins pitched 3 innings striking out 5.  He is nasty!

Yeah, I'd like to see Collins in the starting rotation this season and Davies moved to middle relief.
