Welcome to GordoNation

I think I have a meeting with a vendor at two o'clock today. They better make it quick. I've got a Royals game to watch. Also, I've got parent teacher conferences tonight at 5:40. MLB really screwed me with this day game today.  

The good news is that my kid's teacher is a huge Royals fan, so I'm sure she'll probably just listen to the radio with me for 40 minutes instead of discussing my 1st graders academic progress. I mean, she has a sign outside of her classroom that says "Welcome to GordoNation". That's a good sign, right?  

I'm supposed to meet someone for dinner on the Plaza tonight too. We went to the granfaloon after game 4 of the ALCS last year and it was crowded as hell. I wonder if we'll even find a place with an open table. 

World Series Thoughts

If the Royals win tomorrow, they'll have nearly a week before the World Series starts. I wonder what Ned will do with the rotation. Set it up Ventura, Cueto, Volquez again probably. Pitching Cueto at home is probably a good idea, although I think Citi field plays big. I honestly have no idea about that though. Pure speculation.

I'm also pretty stoked to see what he does with RF after all the talk I've seen about Morales being able to play there. It would be kinda shitty to bench Rios after he's finally started to produce though. Meh. You need pinch hit options with bizarro rules baseball anyway. Might as well keep the defense where it's been all season. Dance with the girl you brought.

Special shout out to /u/caffeinatedhobbit for recommending that I post again.
