The Royals have dropped a series for the first time this season, maybe this little career checkup of a couple of HOFers will allow our bats to heat up again

Stay tuned to see if the Royals can remain this hot. Pennant races are interesting, but a laugher would be calming for the nerves every once in a while.

just a little update on the affairs of the league
Joe Niekro (NYY) no-hits the Mariners Paul Molitor (MIL) goes 6 for 6 Nolan Ryan (NYM) signs a 4 yr 400k per extension Dennis Leonard, Paul Splittorff and George Brett all sign extensions Al Oliver (KC) is headed to DL for 4 months, was leading the AL in hitting Rangers acquire Bobby Murcer from the Yankees for Jerry White The club has cooled off a great deal, playing 1 game below .500 in June. If Doug Bird cannot right the ship, he may lose his closers role http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...1&d=1351118341 |

7/1/78 update
Well Doug Bird has probably pitched his last game for the Royals, he is now 0-6 with 3 blown saves. Team officials will most likely take anything they can get for him, as the fans have turned on him, and the clubhouse is not far behind. That concern was recently shared to the GM from manager Bubba Morton, Bird has really taken to the nightlife and is often late to team meetings and pregame workouts
Here is a look around the Royals stats, the league leaders and the top rookies for June. http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...1&d=1351200215 |

8/1/78 update
Well many races have developed, and the Royals in particular are in a dogfight with the Rangers. We are due to get Tommy John back soon, and overall the offense has picked it up over the last week or two.
Here is a look at all of the usuals for the month. In the NL the hitter of the month and rookie of the month are the same. http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...1&d=1351769368 |
