When we have guys on, you know, it's first and second, second and third.
It's just about putting bat to ball.
A lot of people like that approach.
And for the Royals, that's where you may need to look in the mirror and go, maybe our philosophy of trying to catch up to this sport and saying home runs win you championships, home runs win you divisions, it might need to be a shift back into what you were, going back to your roots.
Because that was winning baseball for the Royals.
The 14 and 15 teams had good players, though.
Like Lorenzo Cain, great player.
Alex Gordon, great player.
Eric Osmer, great player.
And then you had a bunch of guys that just also filled out the lineup that were great at what they did.
This Royals team is led by a superstar talent in Bobby Witt Jr.
And they've got good players around them.
But the Royals should have never built their team to mirror what the top payroll teams are doing.
I know that when you're asking those questions, how do you want your offense to look?
Everybody's attracted to hard hit balls, to home runs.
And you do that more often than not.
You square a ball up.
They always tell you you'll be rewarded for it.
