Kansas City Baseball Vault - Playoff Race Anxiety

As the season enters its final weeks, the pressure is mounting. The Royals offense has sputtered and some players are showing signs of wear. We talked about the remaining series against Detroit, the expanded rosters, tried to do some schedule math (we failed - that suspended game crosses everyone's wires...) and talked about the impact of Danny Duffy's injury. We also looked at what options exist to fill in for Duffy in his next start and the quick ascent of Brandon Finnegan. We also talked briefly about Lorenzo Cain in comparison to Jarrod Dyson. And now...we see what the Royals have left in the tank.
