They will eventually. Maybe it'll be next year, maybe it'll be 20 years from now, but they will.Bumgardner played fantastic in this series! Congrats to the Giants on winning another World Series! Hopefully someday the Detroit Tigers can win a World Series again. The last time the Tigers won a World Series was in 1984....I wasn't even alive back then so there was no way for me to soak in that victory and enjoy it lol.
I actually just read an article about losing team shirts and stuff. Apparently, they donate them to 3rd world countries eventually. They do that with all sports, not just baseball.Congratulations to the Giants for winning the world series, and yet there's tons of ship horns lingering in my area.
On the other hand...
Bumgardner was just insane this series... but it's mostly on the Royals tonight for not displaying any sort of patience
All I can say is the Royals aren't gonna be the same team next season... losing Shields (who wasn't that good in the Post Season anyway), Butler, Aoki, and maybe someone else as well. They have to rely on junk pitchers Vargas and Guthrie, their bullpen statically will not be as dominant as it was this season, and Hosmer, Moustakus, and I believe Davis are due pay raises
They will eventually. Maybe it'll be next year, maybe it'll be 20 years from now, but they will.
The Kansas City Royals made me believe in baseball again, now I'm wondering If it was all worth it in the long run. :/
Who knows, maybe this will spark the Royals like 2006 sparked the Tigers... sure we haven't won anything either, but we put some great teams (heavily under performing since 2012) on the field. Who's to say what the future brings... : )What sucks is that this was the Royals one shot at winning the World Series and an opportunity like this only comes around once every generation, so much to lose yet so little of a chance to gain anything.
I thought the series was pretty great overall, it had pretty much everything imo, much better than these recent years, ever since the Cubs blew in in 2008 as a matter of fact :/. Anyways I'm just amazed at how Bumgardner performed in this postseason, particularly in the World Series. As much as I didn't want to see the Giants win it again, he pretty much carried the team pitching-wise. I felt that either team could have won it if Bumgardner wasn't a factor in the series.
Anyways, this is not 100% confirmed or official yet, but it seems like Joe Maddon may be the new Cubs manager.

Guess we'll have to see... honestly, I just want another exciting AL Central race again.I'd love to see the Royals bounce back into the Playoffs in 2015 but the odds of that happening look pretty slim right now given the circumstances of losing the World Series to Bumgarner of the Giants. For some reason the Royals stopped being aggressive after they won their division in the Playoffs yet I wonder If it had anything to do with James Shields struggling to keep his composure in the final stretch of the 2014 Post-Season.
what troubles me however is that the Royals might do away with the 2014 Post-Season roster that lead them to the World Series by replacing them with inexperienced players going into the 2015 MLB Season.
