What are the Royals thinking?

I heard them discussing this last season. I think they like his toughness
and would like project that over a 6-7 inning stretch. They must feel they
can just push anyone that can throw hard into closer, which IS nuts.

That is nuts! Another great save by Soria this afternoon with the
Royals taking two from Cleveland. Nice! Another low hit/run game for the
Royals, but they came out on top with 2 - 0. Meche looked pretty good
today. 7 innings and no ER.

Good job Royals!
