TampaBay +190

[MrKennedy]

Hate to bet that tampa will win 4 straight and KC will lose 4 straight.. but the only thing less believable than the royals being in first would be Lima being 8-0 with a 2 something era.
I like Kennedy a lot, Royals struggle with lefties... but more than anything Im betting Lima comes back to earth

Hope you're right. Word is out of here that Kennedy will either be demoted to AAA or be sent to the bullpen based on this game. One more bad performance will do the trick. Not sure if that helps or hurts us here. Last year the kid set the team record with 5 CG's but hasn't pitched past the 7th inning this year.

Great time for a complete game 3 hitter.

GO TAMPA

They give the kid a 4 run lead in the 1st inning and he walks the very first hitter!!? Dumb. Let's give them a big inning now I suppose?

Make them earn what they get!!

 

[PatrickMcIrish]

And walks the 2nd hitter......

Say hi to the boys on the farm.

That's what drives me crazy. They give you a 4 run lead and you walk the first two hitters, then a homer and that's 3 runs with one hit. He deserves to be demoted, I liked this kid last year as he would battle you. He doesn't have it any more though.....

4-4 at the end of one. Hope no one played the under.

Well I LIKED Kennedy.. past tense. last game I saw him pitch was at oakland and he was solid. I'm glad Lima got pounded but it would have been nice for Kennedy to throw up a zero after that 4 spot.

looks like its the battle of the bullpens now.

 

[nepenthe]

Phew...been riding Tampa for four straight wins, I needed this one
