We HAVE to have walked in the most runs in the MLB this year, perhaps the most in several years!

2017 Royals

Terrible series. Very disappointing results continuing an unfortunate trend...it's like all the starters forgot how to pitch after the All-Star break.
And of course now we get the team that wants to rival 94-95 NU for consecutive wins...in their park. Naturally we'll sweep them.

Royals just got out of a bases loaded, 1-out jam in the bottom of the 8th.
Three more outs from ending the streak!

About the only saving grace from this nightmarish downturn of the Royals is watching Rhys Hoskins continue to rake.
18 homers now ... in 34 career games.
39 RBIs in that stretch. The most in MLB history over a player's first 34 games.
He walked twice last night, resulting in 26 walks against 26 strikeouts. You just don't see young power hitters with that much plate discipline. Some power hitters never have it.
And he's hitting .314.
The Phillies absolutely suck. But Hoskins may have earned the greatest debut by a player in the history of baseball.

Streak is over.
Minor with the save.

I was conflicted to be honest.
Let's just say ... I would have enjoyed seeing the streak continue ... but if it had to end, then best to happen against the Royals.
Regardless, the playoffs have become quite a bit more interesting in recent weeks.
It ain't over til it's over, but we're pretty darn close now. On the wrong side of a "9" elimination number.
Any last-chance magic, guys??

There is a chance but it would be a short playoff stay anyway.
I say play the young guys and see what they can do. Get Soler and Mondesi some MLB time and see if we have anything there.
Soler was the most disappointing flop of the year for me. Total loss on that trade, especially with Herrera cratering lately. And I'm not sure Mondesi can hit much better than Gore right now...
Mondesi does great at AAA(.305/13HR). He just needs to relax and start performing in KC.
