Royals hope trip to Houston is the tonic they need
MUST HOLD SERVE: After the painful sweep at the hands of the Oakland As over the weekend, the Royals find themselves back at .500, which might have sounded promising back in February considering how many horrible starts the Royals have had in April and May over the years. But there is obvious disappointment now because the team recently was 17-10 and riding high after a huge come...

Tinkering with the Lineup is not Enough for Royals
by John Viril—
Kansas City’s three game losing streak has suddenly made the Royals’ lack of offense apparent. The Royals have scored 3 runs or less in 18 of 30 games this season. The team is tied with the Marlins for last in home runs in major league baseball with 19. Overall, the Royals rank 9th in the American League in scoring with 4.26 runs per game.
In response to this...
Is it time for Royals to suffle the lineup?
KANSAS CITY, Mo. While the focus the past few days on the Royals, at least by some observers, has been on the team's leaky bullpen and Ned Yost's decision to pull James Shields for Greg Holland in Monday's gut-wrenching loss, there remains a far greater concern for Yost:
His toothless offense.
It should be agreed that less than 30 games into the season is far too early...

Yost has faith in Holland, but for how long?
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Amid all the excitement surrounding the Royals' thrilling 3-1 win on opening day, there is one issue still lurking for manager Ned Yost: Stabilizing the closer's role.
Incumbent closer Greg Holland was shaky in Chicago, blew a save Saturday in Philadelphia, and struggled again Sunday against the Phillies before being bailed out by Kelvin Herrera.
On Monday...

Is Ned Yost Giving the Royals the Best Chance to Win?
There is something strange going on inside of Kauffman Stadium. The Royals haven’t played great baseball this year and the biggest concern coming into the season was starting pitching. Yet surprisingly, the Royals have been saved by their pitching staff recently and doomed by their lack of offense.
I am an avid listener of some local sports radio stations and I constantly hear...

Will Ned Yost Make It To The End Of The Season?
While the Royals are 3rd in the Al Central with 3 wins and 4 loses. The question still remains, that if the Royals do not reach .500, will David Glass and Dayton Moore fire Ned Yost. I believe that they will have to fire him, to save the franchise. I don't think the Kansas City Royals can handle another losing season. If we only win 71 games, like last year, he will not be back...
Brewers players wish well for Cubs' Sveum
PHOENIX In six seasons on the Milwaukee Brewers' coaching staff, Dale Sveum did it all.
Hired by Ned Yost in 2006 to serve as third base coach, he became the team's bench coach a year later. In 2008, Sveum became the unlikeliest of interim managers, taking the reins after Yost was fired with 12 games to play as the Brewers returned to the playoffs for the first time in...
