"If you worry about what people say about you in this game," he said, "you’re screwed. I’ve always had that ‘I don’t care what you think about me’ mentality."

Berroa was DFA'd so that the Yankees could add future Hall of Fame utilityman Cody Ransom. Dayton is probably wondering how New York could part with such a talented middle infielder...

Royals Review Need Help: Royals Single Game Pre-Sale

My understanding is that Royals single game tickets go on pre-sale March 5.  I have registered for the pre-sale but still have not received the E-mailed information necessary to participate in the pre-sale.  I had this same problem last year.  Has anyone else received their E-mail from the Royals and, if so, what is the password? 

It seems like they have a lot of communication problems with fans regarding tickets.  Anyone else agree?

Reports say that Kelly Johnson may be available for an outfielder. With its surplus of outfielders, Is KC interested? He's an Atlanta Brave...how can Dayton possibly pass this up?

Royals Review Heckling Jason LaRue

I live in Springfield, Missouri and will be attending two exhibition games this weekend featuring the St. Louis Cardinals vs. the Springfield Cardinals (AA affiliate).  It just occurred to me this morning that I may get to see future Hall of Famer Jason LaRue play this weekend.  After calming the rage inside, I began to ponder the following question...

If you could heckle Jason LaRue tonight, what would you say?

Royals Review Opening Day Tickets

Has anyone won the opportunity to purchase Opening Day tickets this year?  If so, when did you receive your winning message?  I have received a message stating I didn't win but my wife who also entered has received nothing from the team.  I hope this means she won...suspense suspense.

Oh yeah, FILLER

Royals Review Juan Gone

Juan Gonzalez will be joining the Cardinals as a non-roster invitee this spring.  My prediction is that he will pull either a hamstring or an oblique by March 18.  Any thoughts or sneers of derision from the Royals faithful?

Royals Review Royals FanFest

So I live in Springfield and I have already made plans to attend the 1st Annual Royals FanFest in January.  It is all very exciting, right?  This is one of the highlights of my winter.  Maybe getting to see current players like Billy Butler, Alex Gordon, Jose Guillen, etc. up close.  Maybe an appearance from Royal legends like George Brett, Frank White, etc.

Tonight, I look at my bookmarked FanFest website and what do I see...

"Players scheduled to appear at the event include: Ryan Braun...Shane Costa...Tyler Lumsden...Mitch Maier...JASON SMITH".  You get the idea.

I died a little inside.  Why don't they just get Dave Chalk and Joe Zdeb in there too?

Who else is attending the LAST Annual Royals FanFest in January?  Maybe I will ask you for your autograph instead.

Royals Review This Day in Royals History: October 27, 1985

This is the 22nd anniversary of Royals' Game 7 embarrassment of that other team from Missouri.

May it be always be a thorn in the side of every smug and overbearing punk from Creve Coeur, Florissant, Ladue, etc.

Please God, don't make me wait another 22 years for a world championship.

Royals Review Getting to Know Trey Hillman

You Tube has links containing interviews with Trey (you also get to see Mrs. Hillman as well).  All appearances indicate that we are getting a man of courage, faith, determination and conviction---not to mention considerable managerial skills.  GMDM strikes again.  I TRUST DAYTON!
