I don’t think the season is lost, because I never realistically thought the Royals would win the division this year. That said, it was nice to be competitive and in the hunt early in the season, and it would be nice if the team wasn’t comically bad every year.
I think Rany nails it in his post below. I would say that I am still positive for this team to stay within shouting distance of .500, because the starting pitching is solid and getting Gordon and Aviles healthy and in the line up should help the offense and the defense quite a bit.
