....they're in a playoff spot. Huzzah false narratives!

Much to my chagrin, I discovered that they’re still leading the NL Wild Card race at this point.

Luckily, Gawker Media can turn to the thousands of underemployed lawyers in the comments sections to make sure this whole process goes smoothly.

I live in the midwest and everyone hates them.

I thought that was Blackhawks fans?

You see, this is funny because the Royals didn’t make the playoffs from 1985 to 2014. George Smith is suggesting that no Royals fans existed in that time period.

As a Royals fan, you have no reference because your first game was less than 2 years ago.

Another overhyped talent that will never live up to his potential.

Your 20116 World Series Champions!

Yeah but that 1 turns into a 4 so easily.

The last time the Cub's won a World Series (1908) the Ottoman Empire still existed. That is some deep, deep optimism this guy has.

This will be great in 2128 when the Cubs are lamenting that fateful 2016 tattoo by some random twitter dude. “The Curse of the Bad Tattoo” and they’ll still be living the horrible dream they’re living now.

i don't think anyone cares.

Wonder what will last longer, this segment or Gawker Media.

NO ONE CARES

I think this dude and La Russa are literally the only two people that care about this.

At least Puig found a way to keep himself involved with the game after his benching.

I’m a huge Cardinals fan, and let me just say that I’ll gladly put up with a hundred more of these posts this season for a Blues win tonight. I could deal with a decade of this for one Stanley Cup!

I did a double-take. Didn’t even realize he was still in the league.
