Royals to the NL?

They're better than you think. (And yes, that's NOT blue font.)
Having said that, though... even getting up to 75-80 wins guarantees what, third or fourth in that division?
And why would the Brewers want to move? You've got the Chicago rivalry, etc. That's nuts.

 

From the Brewers perspective, you have a Chicago rivalry either way. To put it mildly, the White Sox were not well-liked by Brewers fans and vice versa.

I miss Brewers-Sox games. The Sox are so easy to hate.

 

Doc Gooden wasn't part of the Turn Back the Clock set.
Turn Back the Clock was part of the 1976 Topps set and included "Sporting News" style cards of Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth, Cy Young, Honus Wagner and some of the other greats of the past. I've still got them.

 

I believe he's referring to the 1987 Topps set, which was done with an old-fashioned wood-grain bordering around the edge.

 

I'm not talking about the set. I don't remember the year of the card, but it was a '80s card with Gooden in his '86 gear with the words "Turn Back The Clock" written on the front.

 

There you go. Thanks, wicked.

 

and I just realized I was thinking of "All Time All Stars" not "Turn Back the Clock"

 

Here's the set Mikey's talking about:

 

It's a 1989 Topps card with a 1984 picture.

 

Just because I'm a dork, prior to Seattle and Toronto joining in 1977:

NL East
Chicago Cubs
Montreal Expos
New York Mets
Philadelphia Phillies
Pittsburgh Pirates
St. Louis Cardinals

NL West
Atlanta Braves
Cincinnati Reds
Houston Astros
Los Angeles Dodgers
San Diego Padres
San Francisco Giants

AL East
Baltimore Orioles
Boston Red Sox
Cleveland Indians
Detroit Tigers
Milwaukee Brewers
New York Yankees

AL West
California Angels
Chicago White Sux
Kansas City Royals
Minnesota Twins
Oakland A's
Texas Rangers

 

I see nothing dorky about that, QB.

 

Sorry, but the Royals are nothing like the Pirates, who have no hope and don't even try anymore. The Royals signed Gil Meche to a $55 million last year and Jose Guillen to a $36 million contract this offseason. They're nothing like the Pirates, Marlins or teams like that. They're trying.

Put the Royals in the NL Central and they would instantly become serious contenders to win the division. And yes, I'm serious.
