I'd say Bo Jackson's hip replacement surgery was a larger detriment to their franchise during the 90's when Brett retired. Trading away players like Jermaine Dye and Johnny Damon for bargain-basement prices has proven to be their downfall during this decade.

So true, as even fans of The Dark Side will eventually learn.

Who, thankfully, does not need microfracture surgery on his knee, and will be out 3 to 4 weeks.  In the meantime, . . . I'll expound on the NL thread.

Glory?  Royals?  Not since about 1985, coach.
