Year Two of the Matt Quatraro tenure. Time to take a step up this year. Active in free agency and trades this offseason. A new look pitching rotation and bullpen. Will the young players take the leap up offensively? Bobby Witt extension? New stadium? Will Vinny recover from injury? Salvy taking aim at the Royals record book? Will Cole Ragans turn into the best Royals starting pitcher since Greinke 1.0?

Free Agents/Trades Acquisitions
Seth Lugo, SP
Michael Wacha, SP
Kyle Wright, SP
Hunter Renfroe, OF/DH
Will Smith, RP
Chris Stratton, RP
Nick Anderson, RP
Adam Frazier, 2B
Garrett Hampson, INF/OF

The way things are going lately, I couldn't help but think of Tony Peña deciding to bail on the club (Sr., the shitty manager; not Jr., the shitty shortstop).

Nah this team is way different than 2003. That 03 rotation was held together by duct tape. Go back and look at the stats, it'll blow your mind. Chris George finished second in wins and starts and he had a 7 ERA. This team has 5 legit MLB level starters. That'll keep them competitive if they can get anything out of the bullpen.

Harvey had a knack for those moments. The following summer, he briefly appeared to be killed by a toss from right fielder Matt Stairs:

We could go another 100 years and I'll never understand what Ken Harvey was seeing there when he knocked Grimsley out.

Yes. Seems there is no surviving video footage of that one sadly. That douchebag lived in Olathe and kept up the Fieri look for years. Would see him in public and you could tell he was just itching for somebody to confuse him as the actual Guy. He eventually got into some kind of legal trouble, DV possibly, but don't recall.

Guy Fieri imposter interviewed during Royals telecast
The real Guy Fieri.

The real Guy Fieri.

Not to take away from Zack Greinke’s masterful shutout, but a Guy Fieri imposter was interviewed on-air last night during Fox Sports Net’s broadcast of the Royals game.

Guy Fieri, for those who don’t know, is the Food Network host of "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives." He travels the country visiting these places. He has been to Kansas City before.

A call to PR person Rebecca Brooks confirmed it: It wasn’t Guy!

The imposter gave interviewer Joel Goldberg’s questions short, rude, one-word answers. He was acting like he wanted no part of the interview. He took a phone call during the interview. It was no doubt from his buddy Cletus, who said something like “hey, Buford, I see you on TV!”

My wife’s first reaction was “he looks awful!” It sounded nothing like Fieri. I have seen Fieri in the crowd at various sporting events before, though.

I was determined to never watch his show again, but at least it wasn’t really him. If you know who it was, shoot me an email.

I've always considered the real Fieri to be something of an imposter too, though. Until he visits Columbia's Broadway Diner and orders a "Stretch," I don't consider his show to be legit.

I remember when Harvey was batting like .370 almost up until the All-Star break. Last thing I heard was he was really fat living somewhere in Raytown.
