We're not alone in only having hope each year, but that's half the fun. I try to realistic, but my expectations usually exceed my team's budget, and far exceed the enthusiasm of the team's ownership. The whole Halliday deal was a bit anticlimactic don't you think. Cliff Lee to Seattle? Hmm...Wakamatsu will make the most of that, watch out for the Mariners if they can get a big bat in the lineup.

The Hot Stove keeps us baseball fans alive during the off-season even for us who then are annually disappointed when play starts. I check MLB Trade Rumors every day to see if some move is coming down the pike to rescue the Royals from being terrible to merely awful. Meanwhile, the likes of Lackey, Halliday, and Lee are on the move. Of course, the Royals and A's are nowhere to be found in these discussions and exchanges. But, yes, at least I still have hope.
