The KC Royals walked into the trade deadline ice cream store earlier this week and left it today not with a banana split, or even a double sugar cone featuring the flavor of the day.
Instead, the Royals might have settled for a scoop of plain vanilla with no toppings, not even a candy sprinkle or two.
Many fans of the club, ever hopeful for good things happening at the least likely times during the Dayton Moore regime, have likely been disappointed once again. The midsummer deal deadline passed this afternoon, and with it went any thoughts of immediate organizational improvement.
