Brad....AWESOME!??!

Seriously, if the Royals gave me $1 million to me to kick Moore in the crotch, they'd be better off from both a financial and a baseball standpoint.

I'll do it for 500K! And I'm a non-union consultant so the Royals won't be on the hook if I break a toes or something.

OK, but can you kick as hard as Dan? They'd have to hold tryouts.

I've never met Dan, but yes.

Sorry, that should've been Brad Awesomeness.

The problem with your plan Dan and Shooty is that there are 2 dozen Royals fans who'd be happy to do it for free.

Yes, that's right, every single remaining Royals fan would like to kick Moore in the balls.

It's odd. $1 M a season in today's baseball world is almost ignorable. Yet Kendall at the originally reported 2/$4 was an almost cromulent move that was just a bad idea for the Royals but, hey, at least it saved money over Buck. Somehow at 2/$6, it's like 3 times worse. Must be the new math.

I thought for sure this would be worthy of an illustration by Billy.

god, it took my two minutes of wondering if that was a real guy that I never heard of before I figured out who it was. I need to stop drinking in the middle of the day.

I like Kendall. I hope they give him a zillion dollars, and a pony too. He can glower at it, and make it cry. That would please him.

Anybody else remember when Kendall used to be able to hit?

Sometimes players make a conscious decision to sacrifice average for power, or power for average. Kendall has sacrificed both and thrown in a sacrifice in speed as well and I have yet to figure out what he got back in return.

Grit.

Yeah, I'm pretty shocked this go the straight treatment.

I think Dan is saving up for the upcoming Molina 3/21 deal with the Mets.

The ability to play for a whole year with a torn tendon in his thumb. Which then required three different operations that offseason.

And he was never the same hitter again. The end.

I fully expected to see that piece of toast again.
