It Must Be Awful to be in the KC Royals Organization

The same day that the Kansas City Royals signed Jose Guillen to a three-year contract, he was suspended 15 days for violation of the MLB drug rules.

That once proud organization is a total disaster, and an embarrassment to baseball. How utterly pitiful!

The chief problem with the Kansas City organization is not that they are a small-market team. Plenty of small market teams make respectable showings from time to time. The Minnesota Twins have been in the playoffs over the last several years. The Milwaukee Brewers did very well this year. Cincinnati has made strides, but have not reached the mountaintop. The fact is that the Royals stink because the ownership is not will to part with any money. They really do not want to win. All they want to do is whine about the Red Sox and Yankees.

It serves them right to get their new acquisition suspended.

At least they aren't the Marlins, and have to sell their players when they get good.

They don't have any good players to sell. If they did, they would.
