What is there to say about this team that hasn’t already been said? They are 36-50 with an Pythagorean W-L of 34-52, and have gotten dangerously close to 20 games under .500 before the break for a team that was 16-9 in May.
Their only saving grace is that they are just a game under .500 at home. Consequently, they are 15-28 on the road as they open up tonight’s series against Cleveland, the 2nd best team in the AL Central at 42-42.
With four games left before the break, a lot of things can certainly change, but Kansas City is currently pacing to have a first-half that is either worse or even with the first halves from 2007-2012, Dayton Moore’s first six seasons.
