It was definitely not the outcome I was hopeful for, but even after losing in the World Series this week, I could not have asked for a more fun Mets season to witness. Eric Hosmer wouldn’t wait any longer. The Royals won 7-2 to win the series. 255 with four homers and 32 RBIs before contributing a few key hits during the World Series. The job is finally done.

And if the past two years have taught us anything, it’s that the Royals’ general manager knows what he’s doing when he constructs a roster. For the World Series, bolts descending on the Kansas City skyline.
“I think it will be nice to have a regular five-day, five-man rotation and stick to that”, said deGrom, who made 30 starts this season.
Outside of his game-winning RBI single to win the wild card game in 2014, Perez had a forgettable postseason run past year. Wipe away the pain.
Sam Mellinger is a columnist for The Kansas City Star. “Who cares about what happened previous year?” The Royals are not expected to spend big in free agency this offseason, but they likely at least will talk to Gordon and see what he is looking for before deciding to push hard to keep him or not.
Gordon had an excellent season for the Royals in 2015.
“I just knew it was a matter of time before we did it. I saw our players come into Spring Training with the same determined attitude and they were very convicted that this was going to be our year”. The network says the interview will be broadcast Friday on “Good Morning America”. But keeping Alex Gordon in Kansas City does just that, and when we are talking about keeping someone like Alex Gordon, there is no pricetag….its priceless. We’ll do everything we can to make sure we operate efficiently, first of all, and do the best we can to get them back. “It didn’t work. It was my fault”.
The Royals proved to be too much for the Mets to handle, and it didn’t help that New York’s bullpen faltered in three of the Royals’ four wins.
Lots of interesting, funny, idiotic, and insightful things were said by the Mets-and about them-recently.
While Harvey was the most vocal critic of the innings limits complications, none of the starters were comfortable with them.
In a span of about one week, the Mets had completely turned around their season and finished with a record of 90-72.
All that was left was for Wade Davis to close it out.
The Mets could also have their captain, David Wright, back at third base for a full season (unlike most of 2015).
Out in the Midwest, fireworks popped from Missouri to cities all over Kansas.
“New York City: This is not the end, but the beginning of something special”. He was named ALCS MVP after hitting.
Kelvin Herrera had one of the best post-win gloat tweets of the bunch after the World Series, with the media clearly in mind.
It was the eighth comeback victory for Kansas City this postseason, matching a mark also held by the 1997 Marlins and 2002 Angels, STATS said.
Where will Daniel Murphy go?
