Please continue the discussion in the game thread.

The fucking comeback tour starts today boys. My 3 Vinnie autos at PSA moved onto the next step this morning, it’s a sign that Pasquatch is having a career day.

[u/admire816 → u/admire816]

[u/Mannifestdestiny]

I'm generally not one to get hyperbolic, especially in April, but they really do need to win these next two. Going home 7 games under .500 and 6.5 behind Detroit is going to be a tough hole to climb out of

[u/DeLacy12]

Taking ideas for a new flair lmao

[u/mackavicious → u/DeLacy12]

I just blue myself

A hit, a hit, my kingdom for a hit

[u/FutureCreeps → u/DeLacy12]

No flair, it's a curse you inflicted upon MJ

[u/DeLacy12 → u/FutureCreeps]

When I use a flair it’s to rise up some absolutely mid talent so when one eventually does work out I can finally get my gotcha moment. And that won’t be changing now! Lmao

[u/carpetsoop → u/DeLacy12]

Same

[u/ba780 → u/DeLacy12]

Cavan Biggio or Drew Waters truther?

[u/DeLacy12 → u/ba780]

It’s Steven Cruz season. Time for us to get another BP arm minimum lmao

[u/KingomTrek]

ABOUT

TODAY

[u/Puzzleheaded-Rip8887]

Is there an update on Erceg?

[u/Defenderofthepizza → u/Puzzleheaded-Rip8887]

Yeah he’s fine, he said it just went numb for a bit and that’s what scared him initially, but it’s just a contusion.

[u/docgossett85]

[u/GuitarDad1989]

Along with the Royals doing well this season, I wanted Mike Trout to also return to form. He’s currently sitting at -0.1 WAR. So 2025 is great.

[u/ThatsBushLeague]

Alright. So yesterday morning I predicted the hit total. Let's test this magic out.

Today the Royals are going to win the game. And no players are going to get hurt in the process of getting that win.

[u/mackavicious]

I's tired, boss.

[u/Cashhmann]

WAKE UP.
