Same thing for my Dodgers man. Also we struggling at batting against lefties too.Ugh, the Tigers bullpen has been brutal. Hopefully things get better...
So the Royals 2015 run looks mighty flukey given how poor they've been in 2016 and even worst right now in 2017
first NL all star vote standing is out it looks like the NL team will get a lot Cubs again lol
They're not even playing good ball right now; I wish there was another way of selecting all stars without popularity getting in the way.

As a Royals fan, I'm going through this right now. It's hard to see some of the guys that were involved performing as they are and some being traded away. Nearly any time I listen to sports radio they're talking about why (blank player) isn't performing (usually Alex Gordon) and should they just trade everything and and blow it all up. I'm a sentimental person so I hate to think anyone will leave, but realistically I know someone will.If someone told you your favorite team would would win the World Series, but that it wouldn't be sustainable, that the core players were... decent? at best?, that most of them would leave via trade or free agency within two seasons, that you would have to give up decent prospects to do it, and that you'd potentially be facing multiple subsequent seasons of missing the playoffs after, would you do it?
I think the Royals would and I think'd they'd do it all over again. I don't know if I personally agree with that as a philosophy, but I understand it. Flags fly forever.

1. The Royals will win the world series this year, but all the main players will be leave or be traded after the season
2. The main players for the Royals will stay royals for the rest of their careers, but you're guaranteed no success
I'm not sure what I would want. I feel like I'd be nuts not to take the guaranteed success but I'd miss seeing all the players I've come to love watching. I guess...I guess I'd take the world series this year. Eventually everyone will retire, whether they stay with the Royals or not, but like you said, the world series win would stay forever.
