Piling on

It's virtually impossible for trends like this to bear out over a full baseball season, but they're fun to point out anyway.

Right now, the Royals are 22 games out of first place through 45 games played. This puts them on pace to finish roughly 80 games back. Yow-sah!

Oh, and so far, Mark Grudzielanek has been their best hitter and would probably represent them in the All-Star Game. He's so lame that I'm not even gonna bother to check if I spelled his name right.

(P.S.: Guess who called that the Royals would lose 121 to break the record before the season started. Yes, I have witnesses.)
