While I have been quite critical of Hillman this year and for good reason, I will say that he has improved significantly this last week and tonight may have been the best managed game he has had since he's been here. He was pulling out pitchers at just the right time and he actually let Soria go 5 outs which I didn't see happening for quite a while and especially not tonight, his first appearance

I also think we have to give kudos to our manager for bringing in Soria in the tenth for those two outs. It is a huge relief that the offense did its thing in the top of the eleventh to make it pay off, so that Hillman got positive reinforcement for this decision.

Since we now know that when Coco does try to throw hard, it ends up in the opposing manager's hands, I am thinking the

2009-05-02T23:27:54.904-05:00

I'll tell you what....there are certain games within a 162 game season that define a season. Some you look back on and some you can just sense. Tonight was one of those games. The Royals of the past find a way to lose that game. This year Royals.......this is one night where you look back and say....this game....this team is different. We've turned the corner....I believe that.

2009-05-02T22:57:09.749-05:00

Well, the three run gift was the kind that the Royals haven't always accepted in the past. This involved taking walks and not running into outs, and that shows some maturity. Baby steps, but steps indeed. It was frustrating to see Bloomquist squaring to bunt when the pitcher clearly couldn't throw strikes, but at least he pulled back when the ball was out of the zone.

2009-05-02T22:41:01.290-05:00

Have to comment re Saturday's game. I know it's a long season. But this is the kind of game that the Royals of the last fifteen years just don't win. Maybe we've turned the corner, three run gifts notwithstanding.

2009-05-02T22:30:10.943-05:00

I just saw Tony Pena, Jr. hurt his hand in the middle of an at bat, swing with one hand, etc.

And I actually thought "this isn't good..."

Is it because his defense is THAT important to this team? Is his defensive/offensive ratio that convincing?

Is it bad if Tony Pena, Jr. gets injured?

If that's the case, this team has problems.

My thoughts exactly.

2009-05-02T21:53:12.282-05:00

My thoughts exactly.

2009-05-02T21:43:42.007-05:00

Look, I know this post isn't about tonight's game, but how the heck does Hillman not pinch hit for Tony Pena with 2 on and 2 out in the 10th, a RHP on the mound, and both Teahen and Jacobs on the bench? Even Ryan Lefebere is wondering.

2009-05-02T21:08:31.128-05:00

Zach's great--- but, let's talk about Alberto Callaspo - .392 BA and 900+ OPS. Probably should be in the two hole.

Royals are down by one, 6-5 Minnesota...and...by God if I don't think they're actually going to score a run before the 9th..

2009-05-02T00:32:05.564-05:00

Anyone have good information on Blaine Hardy pitching in Burlington right now? He's 22, left-handed, and has 25 Ks and 0 BBs in 18 IP so far this year, all of which makes him intriguing. I'm not an expert on the Royals minor leaguers, so I was wondering if this kid is a prospect or just an early season fluke.

25 Ks with 0 BBs is impressive to me no matter the circumstances.

2009-05-01T22:24:06.618-05:00

Anyone know the date we have to wait for tell the Royals collect another year of major league service time with Hochever? I’m not sure that I can handle another Sid start

2009-05-01T01:18:39.346-05:00

Rany, I have read every one of your posts on this blog since it began and I don't think I've disagreed with you once until seeing this incessant need to apologize to Hillman. First off, two wrongs don't make a right so mentioning the Mets' manager doesn't make Hillman right or even less wrong.

Obviously, we were all wrong in our criticism of this one case but we had every reason to

2009-05-01T00:31:23.597-05:00

I think its time we send Allard Baird our thanks for drafting Zack...I was looking at other players taken after Zack and some aren't bad but who would you rather have, Prince Fielder, Joe Saunders, Jeremy Hermida, Scott Kazmir, Nick Swisher or Zack Greinke? I know Zack's on top of the world right now and this might not be a fair time to judge but at least we didn't pick Scott Moore or Drew Myers

Rany, you must post on us having a winning April.

2009-04-30T22:35:34.922-05:00

On a different topic, what is going to happen when Gordon comes back? It's hard to imagine moving Teahen back to second base if Callaspo is still hitting the way he has been. It seems like a case of musical chairs and someone will be left standing with no place to sit.

2009-04-30T22:05:39.905-05:00

Good call, Steve. I know Buck is not the permanent solution, but at least go with the hot bat 70-80% of the time until he proves otherwise.

2009-04-30T21:17:33.152-05:00

Another topic: Buck should be the regular catcher until about July 1st, when all of us know he will be in the process of burning out, then Olivo should take over. Buck of course will hit about .098 in the second half.

So, Anonymous above, let me understand your commentary.

On one hand, a person can condemn someone in baseball for the gut/irrational decisions that fly in the face against statistically-based or common sense (read: rational) decisions. And they feel they can do so because they have no preconceived (or cherished) notions of the game.

On the other hand, that same person can
