I couldn't possibly be more supportive of your vote for Vinnie. On a completely different subject....

Not only do trades happen at the winter meetings, but the initial feelers that eventually lead to trades happen there as well. With that in mind, it would be nice to have a pitching coach who could say definitively which pitchers he wanted to keep, which ones he wouldn't mind getting rid of, and which ones he would like to acquire. In the absence of a pitching coach, opportunities will likely pass right by the team.

We'll soon know if the Royals are aware of that or not. If they don't have a pitching coach in time, whether they care or not will be a matter of pure speculation.

Thanks, and nice job as always. Also, sad news today as legendary (and short-time Royals) pitcher Gaylord Perry has passed. He's throwing spitters to Saint Peter...
