There's no balance in Kansas City

My title is very true - especially through Chicago and New York.....

Let's face it.  The White Sox swept the Royals in South Chicago last week, and our local nine, with the exception of the 15-inning marathon, were pathetic.  That's all I can really say about that trip, so on to New York.

Friday night, the Royals accomplished something that they haven't done a lot of lately - win in New York.  Behind Kyle Davies, our losing streak breaker from one week ago, the Royals won 2-1.  On this night, they had pitching but no offense.

Yesterday afternoon, both teams had offense but no pitching.  Joakim Soria blew his first save opportunity of the season and the Royals lost 12-11.  Today, the Royals didn't show us enough of either pitching or offense, as they bowed 6-3, despite Jose Guillen's third home run in two games.

Luckily, the team with the worst record in baseball doesn't reside here.  The way I see it, that's the only positive.  This team needs balance, and soon.
