The Royals are 2-4, and have been outscored 27-43, or 4.5-7.2 per game. Not so hot. Playing the Rays next does not help. At home.

Royals sign Omar Infante. No trading for Altuve.

I think I'm gonna Cry...
A guy turns down a deal with the Yanks, to go to Kauffman.

I'd probably be a little worried about someone like that.

Never...Happened...Before....

The 2-1 win in the series puts the Royals at 4-5. They have been outscored 47-58, or 5.2-6.4 per game. The upcoming series is at the Twins. I figure we'll win 2. 

Next 3 series:
@ Twins(3-6)
@ Astros (2-7)
vs Twins (3-6)

My thoughts about Infante:
I think this is awesome. It allows us to make Bonifacio the utility IFer, and It gives us some options. If Moose isn't performing after 2 months, we send him down, put Infante at 3rd and Bonifacio at 2nd. If Bonifacio isn't performing, we've got Christian Colon. Now we need a SP. GET ERVIN BACK! A rotation of Shields, Santana, Guthrie, Vargas, Duffy, and Aoki, Infante, Hos, Gordo, Butler, Salvy, Moose, Cain, Escobar, and a bench of Bonifacio, Lough, Maxwell, Dyson, Colon would be SCARY!
