Love reading your blog. <br /><br />Idea for a future column: what are the Royals going to do with the rotation in 2012? Obviously the remaining weak link, but all of a sudden with Hoch and Duffy and Paulino pitching well, throw in Chen if we keep him...does crow move into the rotation? What about montgomery or Lamb? Mendoza?

The profound sadness of that moment came back to me as I took it in. Then I happened to check your site this morning and your writing served to bring to mind a fact that I take for granted and rarely reflect on.
