| 2019-07-19 12:00:00 (link to chat) | I'm not ungrateful. I enjoyed the two year run that the Royals had. Flags fly forever. However, I feel as though it bought Dayton Moore as long of a leash as he desires. While I give him some credit for the good years, it felt like a lot of things just happened to come together at once and he found lightning in a bottle. I think he is a subpar executive and should be fired. Am I being to tough on him?
(Salty MFer from Mom's Basement) | There's a large number of angry Royals fans in the queue today, so I dunno if Dayton said some stuff recently. I will say this is an interesting philosophical question. As a Mets fan on the other side of 2015, who also lived through a good two-year run and now looking at little hope in the medium term, I do wonder how I'd feel if Familia didn't quick pitch, Murphy could field, and Harvey didn't talk his way into the ninth (obviously some of those are paired outcomes). I'd feel a lot better obviously, because flags do fly forever, but the Mets continue to be maddening in particularly Mets ways and I imagine it would gnaw at me by now. I assume it is the same for Royals fans (and they are mucking up in very Royals ways). Bill Simmons used to talk about the five-year rule for not criticizing teams after a championship, and it's not a bad hard and fast delineation, but time's just about up in KC.

| 2019-07-19 12:00:00 (link to chat) | When Dayton Moore says that he expects a "quick rebuild" is it because HE is stupid, or is it because he thinks all of the FANS are stupid?
(Mr. Fister from Arlington) | I mean it could be, they have arms coming and potentially coming "quickly." The division is pretty winnable with some good luck and the odd career year. It *could* happen, but you know, you'd probably want to hear a more thorough plan on the how of it. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |

(Mr. Fister from Arlington) | Both? He probably doesn't want to say that it's going to take a long time even if he believes that it will deep down, and the Royals have had what look like some fairly productive drafts. If he's trying to convince himself or anyone else that Bobby Witt is going to be in the majors while Whit Merrifield's still around, I'm not sure what to tell him. (Darius Austin) |
