I dunno about Naysayer. Realist maybe. Objective maybe.
I wouldn't make any judgements about this game yet - it hasn't been long enough yet.
Greatest game since WoW? Every premium sub-based MMORPG since WoW has failed (to retain players or stay sub-based) so that's a pretty low bar, eh?
What I see with FFXIV is an easy game, with a fast leveling track, with plenty of people already 50 and have been for days, already done with "relic weapons," already easily plowing thru so-called hard modes, etc. I joined a large FC and people are already saying they're bored with some of the end game content. It hasn't even been 3 weeks. It's ridiculous that so many people are allready doing or have done all endgame has to offer within 3 weeks of EA.
What are those people going to be doing 2 weeks or a month from now? In my experience it's a lot less enjoyable to go back and do alt stuff or crafting stuff when you've already exhausted endgame.
Didn't they say their first big content patch would be 2-3 months after release? That is a very long time given how fast this game plays. People were 50 in the first week. People are massacring endgame now.
When I heard of "relic weapons" I figured THIS would be something to sink your teeth into. This will take some time. Well, in today's fast food gaming a few hours, maybe over a few days, is all one needs to get the best of the best. Then what? Park AFK outside the adventurer's guild looking cool?
Me...I'm only lvl 40, me and my friends love to do dungeons and we've been doing every instance 4-5 times and we're in no rush. Even so...we're pretty far along and once we DO hit 50 we'll be plowing thru endgame content - apparently with ease since it seems liie anyone can crush endgame in this game.
I really have to wonder how this game is going to keep people around. They pretty much need to start adding more content NOW.
Fun game, for sure, but as with every clone since WoW, it's too heavily solo oriented, plays too fast and easy, and it's just damn unlikely that the developer can crank out content fast enough to keep people interested.
I'm still not convinced. I say hold off on proclaiming the new prince until it's been 2-3 months. Not only for content - to see if there will be anything close to enough, but for some other things.
This game is lacking in a lot of "quality of life" ways. There's threads about it on the official boards and a lot of pro reviewers are mentioninng it. It's a lot of little things that you can overlook with the new shine glare in your eyes but the longer you play, the more those little things bother you. Will they be addressed and how long will it be?
We shall see. The OP proclaims this is the best MMORPG since WoW. I see it more as SWTOR 2.0. Hyped, seems amazing at first, seems like people get "done" with it even faster, and will there be huge drop offs 3-6 months in due to lack of stuff to do.
I don't think you can judge either way based on a little over 2 weeks of being live and not even 1 week yet of people being able to play without major login hassles.
Premium MMORPGs do not feature built-in cheating via cash for gold pay 2 win. PLAY to win or don't play.

Saying something is the greatest is so objective.
Also theres a lot of people who didn't think your reference game was the prior greatest game.
Its a solid game, well made, high production value...and it a game that knows what its doing and who its targeting. Nothings worse than a game with no direction that tries to make every gamer type happy.
Lots of people are going to dislike the game, but those who do like it will probably stick with it for a long time. Especially if their planned content is as high or of higher production value.
Lets not forget that FFXI was a game that chose not to follow all the trendy things and did quite well over a long period of time, staying p2p the entire duration (its still p2p right?)
Seems SE took that route, but added in some more modern stuff this time around.
I think the next big mmorpg launch youll see this game fade into the backround noise...and it will just keep on ticking along with a decent population with it...just like the older FF mmo.

After reading the last few pages of this thread, and some earlier, including a guy that said FFXIV: ARR won't even get 10% the amount of subs WoW has, well I thought people should be aware . . .
During phase 3 of beta they ended up with over 1.5 million players (not talking about concurrent obviously). Once phase 4 came, which was open beta, I'm sure those numbers increased a lot, but I haven't read any official statement on this from phase 4 beta.
It was the single most played beta in the history of betas across all video games. They broke 1 world record here.
When launch came the amount of players playing were higher than even beta, though I never read an official release of the exact number, but considering the number from phase 3 and how it kept getting higher ever since, I'm sure it's safe to assume the game already has over 2 million players. Obviously game is still free to play, so can't say that number is in subs, but that is still a good sign. Post launch they broke 2 world records even with many players unable to play due to server congestion, though I don't remember what they were, but you can Google it.
It is the best MMO I have ever played personally, and I have played MMOs since EQ1. I've played WoW, GW2, Rift, Tera, Maplestory, etc. It takes the best of the familiar and some innovations and creates something marvelous.
However, despite how good the game is there is one thing that worries me . . . the fast leveling. Leveling in this game is way too fast, and I believe it is going to be the game's downfall if something isn't done to solve the issue. It's even slightly faster than leveling in a non-MMO console RPG. The FATE system is what is making this possible. They either need to nerf FATE experience, or make FATEs spawn less often, or dramatically increase the amount of experience required to level. It would probably be better to change the FATEs in some way.

How can anyone say the leveling is fast in this game when there are so many classes to level lol? Either some of you guys aren't aware of how this game works or you just have no intention of leveling the crafting classes or anything else outside of the class you choose when you created your toon.
Either way you are really missing out.....

anyone who level his job to 50 and stop there is really not considering the main point of cross class skills and jobs etc. as a MRD/WAR I have to level Monk to 44 , gladiator to 22 , pugilist to 15 , and lancer to 12 or so to get the best out of Warrior Class.
on top of that I had to level mining and armorer to help me meld / craft gear and also make some money out of mining.
this is how I think everyone should approach any MMO, sit a long term goal and not a short term call and call it game over.

Greatest MMO since WoW? How? Just because you love the game doesn't mean it's the greatest since WoW... and not even in term of number of players you could say that since GW2 been release for a year and it has more players than this game who just got released. Seriously, I would prefer to play a great final fantasy game a la FF3 than playing this MMO with a FF stamp on it. Also, sure the game might be better than WoW now, but not vanilla WoW.
So while this game is popular atm (like every single MMO release), I'm pretty sure people will run through the content in no time, devs will have a hard time to push out new content, player base will start dropping and next thing you know, it become F2P! I'm not saying that I want this game to fail but I fail to see how this game will do well in the long run. It's just another hyped MMO IMO.

I am playing it atm. It's very, very hard to get into. There is nothing that this game does that is new, everything has been done 200 times before in whatever MMO you want to compare it to. The quests are so damn boring and bland...in fact, they are all "go kill 8 ladybugs" type of quests. Pretty depressing.
Like every other themepark, the whole point is to just look for NPCs with exclamation marks over there head, and mindlessly go about doing your little "quests".
The game opens up much later, at around level 30 or so when you start to get your advanced class stuff....but by then, you are probably burnt out on the same......thing....over....and....over.
If you have never played a MMO before, this is an excellent game. It's about as social as GW2...meaning you do not have to talk or interact with anyone unless you do dungeons.
10 years ago this would have been a great game...but now there are too many games exactly like this. It looks really nice though.

A content locust is like the loud, boisterous asshole who walks up, chugs the whole mug in ten seconds, belches, says that it sucks, then goes off to hork down bar peanuts & greasy burgers while drinking Natural Light until he passes out over a toilet at 4AM.
Both are beer drinkers, but it's pretty obvious who's only doing it to get shitfaced.

As I'm somewhat of a FFXI fan, I was somewhat disappointed so far as this game fell into the trappings of the rest of the Wow clones where you really feel like your being hand held through most of the quests. There is no sense of accomplishment of getting your second job or your airship pass for example, Things were actually somewhat of a challenge even in the early levels in FFXI. In the dungeons I've played so far, people just rip through them with no discussion or purpose because all they want to rinse and repeat. There is no sense of teamwork, and no skill chains.
Maybe I need to give it more time, but honestly for being a casual player nowadays, I don't find this game much of a challenge and not sure what will keep me after the free trial.... I hope I'm wrong. There are alot of good things, but I think they fell short of the greatness you predicted.

every "big" mmo that releases has done well at launch. most mmo players today buy a game at launch, blow through the content and leave or leave when the next "big" mmo launches. i'm sure most players would like to spend years enjoying an mmo instead of abandoning ship every 3 months but that just hasn't been happening on a large scale in the last year or so.
as for ff14 i did the beta and eventually stopped logging into that so not buying it was a no brainer. hopefully wildstar or teso give me years of enjoyment if not then i'm sure each will be good for 3-6 months worth of entertainment which is well worth the cost of the games.

He added that the flooding started after a road leading to new Kapurthala jail was constructed across their fields. The road level is now higher than the fields, leading to frequent flooding.
However, this severe flooding could have been avoided if the three drainage points left across the road would have been in use.
"Three exit drains were provided for at the planning stage. However, two of them were blocked by farmers having fields on the other side. The drainage department failed to construct a drain on the third exit point. This has led to flooding on our side of the fields," said a farmer Jota Singh.
Another farmer Harbans Singh said, "We are going to suffer big losses due to waterlogging. I was counselled by family or I will have ended my life."
Farmers have submitted their complaint to the state chief minister through fax, deputy commissioner Kapurthala Daljit Singh Mangat and other political bigwigs of the district seeking their intervention to provide relief.
"We are staunch Congress supporters and due to this the district administration is not listening to us. Otherwise, by now the administration should have instructed drainage department officials to ensure smooth flow of rainwater. THe blockages that have been artificially created should have been removed," farmer Thind said.
"Almost each farmer, who had sown paddy in the deluged fields, had spent nearly 2,500 per acre to re-plant the paddy. All the money has been lost due to the heavy rainfall. Things are unlikely to improve. No government official has even bothered to visit us."
Navinder Singh, Nambardar Darshan Singh, Gurnam Singh and were the farmers who have been the most vocal about their losses.
"During rains, due to lack of drains, the water rises nearly 2-3 in the village and even enters the rooms of Anganwari centre," Navinder said.
Deputy commissioner Daljit Singh Mangat said, "Farmers had approached me on Tuesday with their complaint. I have passed necessary instructions to the drainage department to provide relief to farmers. If any negligence is detected on part of the drainage department officials, action will be taken."

Select Local Merchants
Three Kings Public HouseRead MoreThe bright-red door outside Three Kings Public House acts as a beacon, summoning guests into the tavern—which was named the Best New Bar in 2011 by the Riverfront Times—for a brew and a bite. Once past the vibrant port, though, diners enter an old-school world dominated by brick and wood decor. Though this aesthetic choice gives the Delmar Loop bar a time-honored vibe, the menu reveals that the kitchen's vision is focused firmly on the here and now. In fact, to keep their dishes as fresh as possible, chefs use only locally sourced ingredients from nearby Missouri and Illinois farms including Twin County, Heil, and Thies Farms. This conscientious culinary choice adds to the bar's effort to keep its carbon footprint smaller, but it also ensures that each handcrafted pub-style entree—from third-pound burgers to traditional fish 'n' chips and barbecue pulled-pork sliders—arrives at tables bursting with flavor. Chefs also toss out a culinary curveball in the form of their not-so-traditional bar eats, including a soy-protein burger and a filet mignon cut into the shape of each diner's silhouette. To further enliven Three Kings' eats, meals can be accompanied by a fresh cocktail or any of the "20 craft and locally brewed beers on tap" mentioned by the Riverfront Times. During the warmer months, diners are invited to recline on the outdoor patio; no matter the season, Tuesday and Wednesday nights are dedicated to live musical acts performing on the bar's built-in stage.6307 Delmar Blvd.University City, MO US
Studio AltiusRead MoreStudio Altius's owner, photographer David J. Cerven, drew on his background in theater to create a new approach to portraiture. Like directors and actors, or producers and theater critics who owe them a favor, Cerven's photographers and clients work collaboratively to create defining moments. Along with fellow photographer Shawna Ventimiglia's background in fashion design, Cerven creates personal, compelling images of children and families, high-school seniors, brides, and couples, as well as professional headshots and sexy boudoir images. Clients can pose in either his 3,000-square-foot studio or outside the studio in a picturesque outdoor setting. In addition to working with clients, Cerven teaches his methods to other photographers in portraiture workshops and classes, and maintains an on-site art gallery.2301 South Big Bend BoulevardSaint Louis, MO US
Jimmy John'sRead MoreAt Jimmy John's, guests can expect one of the better-priced meals in Saint Louis. Stop by for the good quality and stay for lightning-fast service. You'll be a repeat customer in no time. There's no specific recommended attire, so feel free to dress casually and comfortably. Also, though the prices may be low, you can bank on the ingredients being fresh. In fact, you should certainly be able to enjoy a good meal for nine or ten bucks, and can probably get in and out for just a Lincoln if you try. In addition to its quick service (take-out is available), the restaurant also offers delivery, and can even cater an event for you. One of the better quick-service franchises in the area, this Jimmy John's definitely serves up subs so fast you'll freak.9200 Olive BlvdSaint Louis, MO US
Value Village Thrift Department StoreRead MoreThe selection at Value Village rarely ever stays the same—that's because each location boasts a rotation of 30,000 items each week, sourced from charitable organizations and wholesalers. Among this sprawling selection, customers will find a cavalcade of new and gently used clothing, ranging from jeans to shirts to dresses, be they in classic, vintage styles or modern trends. Additionally, they'll also find a huge selection of furniture such as couches and tables, along with electronics, appliances, toys, and housewares to place on and around them.101 Kenrick PlazaShrewsbury, MO US
The Bedroom StoreRead MoreAt seven locations, The Bedroom Store stocks all types of bedroom furnishings. Shoppers can find mattresses by Serta and Tempur-Pedic, skull-cradling memory foam or latex foam pillows, bed frames, and more.925 Northwest PlazaSt. Ann, MO US
Edible Arrangements St. LouisRead MoreJuicy tidbits of chocolate-dunked fruit arrive on the doorsteps of family and friends, done up in colorful bouquets and candy boxes by the skilled fruit arrangers at Edible Arrangements' more than 1,100 franchises worldwide. The company's in-house chocolatiers decorate albion strawberries and daisy pineapples in sweet flavors. Once properly chocolated, the workers organize the preservative-free sweets into lush arrangements that resemble flowers in bloom. Customers can choose to display their bouquets in a variety of vessels, including vases, mugs, and sports- or holiday-themed containers that add a personal touch. Alternatively, customers can opt to adorn gifts with the cheery, red lids of candy boxes, nestling 12 morsels inside to build anticipation and determine if loved ones have x-ray vision as they guess whether fruit will come dusted in shredded coconut or drizzled in white chocolate.418 N 10th St.St. Louis, MO US

What the Night Knows
by Dean Koontz
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I think I got an abridged version of this. Mine was on audio and just over an hour long. It felt like huge parts were missing and now I know why.
I was worried this was going to be another best damn dog of the year saves the day book. But it's not. It's a best *dead* damn dog saves the day book. It seems ever since poor Koontz Golden Retriever passed all he can write are angel doggies (with secret portal transport skills!) saving their owners from a fate worse than death. I can sympathize having two dogs myself. But still. REALLY. If a serial killer were to break into my house in the dead of night, Charlie (my rhodesian ridgeback who I call Rabbit the Lion Hunter) would give his loyal almighty god like "WOOF!" three times, tuck his tail and run for the hills... until he got stuck to a cactus. Hagsy the lab would probably just run happy circles around the house inciting some kind of magic spell hoping to induce giant squash (her fav vegetable) that would rise up and squish malevolent intruders and probably me, then she'd follow Charlie. Cute, but no angels.
I will say, the book is closer to the roots of horror & suspense of his older works, which is why i fell inlove with Koontz in the first place. But it's at times preachy and I feel he can cut back on his moral of the story narration thing. I am/was curious why he did so much of the narration in this particular book and would love to hear others opinions. Perhaps he was aiming for small bits of old fashion narration similar to what Dickens or Defoe did in their works (especially considering how often he brought up Lousia May Alcott's Little Women)? If so, very cool idea. However, the mix of the modern jive with old time narration just didn't work for me here (maybe if he cut back on the modern dudeness slang of it all). But I like the risk of it. It means although he's been at the #1 slot for years he's still stretching out of his comfort zone. In today's environment when it seems so many stick to the same formula over and over, I find this wonderfully refreshing, even when one falls flat on their face.
It's been a while since I've picked up a Dean Koontz's book that I enjoyed reading so much. I'm not refering to his most recent works in particularly - although some say they have been decreasing in quality -, nor am I saying that I didn't appreciate the ones I've read.
I didn't have that much expectations about this one, which was probably the reason why I liked it so much. It's one of his most suspenseful novels that I've read, and also one of the most entertaining ones.
A story about a perfect American family haunted by a malevolence from hubby's past. Sometimes, I just wanted to say: "don't dooo iiittt" as the little girls giddily and naively invite the demon. The smash conclusion is predictable, except for a little twist. Where's my next Koontz book?
Abysmal. One of the worst books ever. What started out as a very interesting premise - a dead serial killer possessing someone and making him kill his family - turned out to be a haphazard, beyond silly revenge story with nonsensical victims, idiotic killings and illogical - and bountiful - killers.
The protagonists are - of course - the perfect family. Husband is a cop. Wife is a prolific artist, beautiful, intelligent, tough. She home schools their three brilliant beautiful perfect precocious children. Their household help is perfect. Their dead dog is perfect. By the end I wanted them all dead.
Thankfully I borrowed this from the library, and did not pay for it. I just wish I had my time back, and this awful book scraped from my memory.

After Detective John Calvino receives a signed confesion to a shocking crime from 14-year-old Billy Lucas, he feels that somehow Billy has come home with him, to his family. Then another killing spree happens, just as and when John Calvino dreaded it would. Billy is safely locked away, but not the "ghost", if the ghost exists, that links these murders with past crimes, and with John Calvino. Anything could happen, and surely will-- again.… (more)

Maybe if he stopped trying to help the situation then everything will become just fine. Who is he to decide what humanity is ready for and what not?
Anonymous Coward 40731538
Perhaps the reason we are still alive and here talking right now is because of the hard work of "15" and others?
I can tell you the Elite and the Powers that be are NOT happy with "15" right now, why?
Because he sided with humanity and went against there de-population agenda for the rest of us.
That pissed them off.
Anonymous Coward 42035983
Ok then, but i am keeping an open mind, not making conclusions.
But i would like to talk to you again about a dream i had a few years ago. In the dream you came to me with a woman and explained that "15" was after her. You explained that "15" is the dark side of Jesus Christ and in the past he tried to incarnate through that woman. But that woman knew about it and prevented it from happening, and thats why he was after her. You came to me to help protecting her. That woman also mentioned that she could see right through me but couldnt see next to me, i still dont know what this means. But i helped out and that was that.
You said that you didnt knew anything about this, you still dont? Because dreams are very real.
Anonymous Coward 40731538
Lol As always when i post something like this Michael ignores it.
Anonymous Coward 40731538
I have already answered you? I have no clue what you are talking about?
It is interesting that "15" and myself both showed up in your dream, that is for sure, yet that is your dream and it's for you to figure out.
Did you know of "15" before hand?

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 7/11/13
The Charlotte Bobcats are discussing sign-and-trade possibilities with multiple teams after reaching an impasse in contract negotiations with guard Gerald Henderson, Yahoo! Sports reports. Henderson, 25, is a restricted free agent. He averaged career highs in points per game (15.5), assists per game (2.6) and steals per game (1.0) this past season. He also pulled down 3.7 rebounds per game. The 12th overall pick in the 2009 draft, Henderson has spent his entire four-season career with the Bobcats. The Yahoo! Sports report speculates the Bobcats could ramp up their pursuit of free agent guard Monta Ellis if they are able to deal Henderson.

2007 Honda S2000 Body Kits
Fits - 2007 Honda S2000
2007 Honda S2000 body kits are additional components that can be installed to enhance and revitalize a outward look. After years of wear and tear, the exterior components on many automobiles starts to look worn and old. Any damage to a vehicle's paint or to the exterior components themselves can lower a automobile's resale value, making the use of bodykits is just that significant. A bodykit can transform a car appear more attractive, without replacing any of the mechanics of the vehicle.
Some astonishing 2007 Honda S2000 body kit products come with replacements for several parts, front & back bumpers and side add ons. These are the places of a vehicle that are most typically damaged from regular driving, but they aren't the only parts that can be easily fixed. Other aftermarket body parts can be used to customize a vehicle's appearance, so 2007 Honda S2000 body kit can sometimes be tailored to a car owner's specific needs. For an upgraded look that eliminates the outdated appearance created from years of driving, a cool body kit can make you smile.

Not the best or worst of nights for Sabathia
Looking at the scoreboard and nothing else, it would appear that CC had a so-so night against the Royals. He allowed four runs, three earned through just 6.1 innings, which is a few outs short of a typical Sabathia start. He did strike out nine, nice because his strikeout rate is down a bit at this point and we know he started heating up during the summer months last year. But those 11 hits stand out. So do the 120 pitches he threw to record those 19 outs.
Really, though, it wasn't that bad a game for Sabathia. Of the 19 balls he allowed in play, eight were hit on the ground. That's a good thing. While the AL hits to a slightly better batting average on ground balls, .231, than fly balls, .222, those ground balls rarely go for extra bases. AL hitters have produced a .248 SLG on grounders and a .577 SLG on fly balls. So while grounders might result in a few extra men on base, they hurt a lot less than balls hit in the air.
This plays right to the Royals' game. As Joe Posnanski chronicled earlier in the week, the Royals pick up base hits and little else. They're first in the majors in batting average, but they're just seventh in OBP and 10th in SLG. They hit, sure. But they also make plenty of outs and they have a hard time advancing runners multiple bases. It's no surprise that the team has a .325 wOBA that ranks ninth in the AL.
Despite the high hit and undesirable run totals, we can take plenty of positives from this outing. For instance, CC's strikeout rate is slightly down this year, 7.4 per nine. Last night he struck out nine Royals. His average velocity this season, according to PitchFX, has been 93.4 mph. Last night he averaged almost a mile per hour faster, 94.25 mph, and topped out at 96.5. He hit 96 plenty of times in the sixth inning, even though he had lost his control by that point.
Sometimes those ground balls will find holes. Thankfully, they don't do much damage if you can keep inducing those grounders. That's the beauty of the situation. While hitters reach base more often when hitting the ball on the ground, they're also vulnerable to the double play with a man on and less than two outs. So if one guy hits one on the ground through a hole, the next guy might do the same thing and erase both runners. CC has an added weapon in that he can strike out hitters and therefore leave more of them stranded. Again, that's what we saw a lot of last night.
Remember, too, that there were other little things for which we can't blame Sabathia. In the first inning, for instance, Billy Butler would have grounded into an inning-ending force out, but the runner was moving. That forced Robinson Cano to move from exactly the spot where Butler hit the grounder. And then there's Jorge Posada's head-scratching throw to third. But that's for another day. All of this hurt Sabathia even further.
One thing we can be sure of: his early season trouble are over. He did have some, for sure, but lately all we've seen is vintage CC. In his last 13 starts he has pitched 91 innings while striking out 81 and walking 33. He has allowed 83 hits in that span on a .306 BABIP. And, after struggling with the homer earlier in the season he hasn't allowed a single on in his last nine starts.
Some of the numbers make last night's outing look like middling, but looking it a bit deeper it was actually pretty good. The nine strikeouts are encouraging, as are the ground balls. It's just that some of them found holes last night. If CC pitches similarly next time out I suspect that his line will look a lot more attractive.
A-Rod, Jeter, Sabathia among the highest earning athletes in 2010
Yeah, the title is rather obvious. Of course those guys are among the highest paid American athletes this year, they all have contracts worth well into nine-figures. Alex Rodriguez trails only Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Floyd Mayweather Jr., and LeBron James in earnings this year, taking in a total of $37M between his salary ($33M) and endorsements ($4M). Derek Jeter is three spots behind him after banking $31M ($21M in salary, $10M in endorsements), and CC Sabathia five spots behind him at $26.5M ($26M salary, $0.5K endorsements). Those three are the only baseball players in the top 25.
Mark Teixiera comes in at No. 35 overall with a $20.25M payday ($20M salary, $0.25M endorsements), and A.J. Burnett No. 50 closes the list with $16.775M in the bank ($16.5M salary, $0.25M endorsements). John Lackey, Vernon Wells, Albert Pujols, Ryan Howard, Barry Zito, Torii Hunter, Josh Beckett, and David Ortiz are the only other baseball players to crack the list. They claim it's American athletes only, and even have a separate list for international athletes, but somehow Ortiz qualifies. Eh, whatever. All this does is confirm what we already know: it's good to be a Yankee.
A-Rod hits homer No. 599 as Yanks trounce KC
Whenever a team as perennially awful as the Royals come to town for a four game set and aren't scheduled to throw their Cy Young Award winning ace, it's easy to start thinking about a sweep. Of course the first step toward that sweep is winning the first game, and the Yankees did exactly that on Thursday night. With Tampa Bay enjoying a scheduled day off, the Yankees picked up a half-game on their division rivals and now lead the AL East by three full games.
Biggest Hit: Posada Doubles In The Go-Ahead Run
The first few innings of this game went back and forth. The Royals stayed true to form as the game's premier bloop single outfit (lead the majors in batting average, third worst in isolated power), pushing a pair of runs across in the top of the 1st before the Yanks answered back in the bottom half. They scored another run in the 2nd, and the Yanks answered in the 3rd. With the score tied at three in the 5th, Robbie Cano singled with one out to start the rally, and two changeups later the Yankees had the lead for good.
Jorge Posada, who had himself a rather interesting night (more on that later), took the first pitch in the dirt for a ball before unloading on a hanging changeup, sending it deep into the leftfield corner and scoring Cano from first. He later came around to score himself on a Marcus Thames sac fly, though looking back it's hard to believe that these were the two runs that would effectively decide the game. This one had 10-8 or 9-6 written all over it early on.
Biggest Out: Guillen Kills The Rally
Before the Yankees broke things open in the bottom of the 8th inning, Joba Chamberlain once again found himself in trouble in the top half. In fairness, it wasn't entirely his fault. Scott Podsednik and Jason Kendall beat out a pair of infield singles with one out that traveled a combined 100-ft or so, and the inning should have been over when Posada threw Podsednik out stealing third. Instead third base ump Chad Fairchild called him safe, and the inning continued.
Joba poured a first pitch fastball into the zone that Billy Butler took for a strike. Butler then took a slider out of the zone for a ball before swinging over another slider for strike two. Butler is one of the game's best young hitters (.306/.369/.483 in close to 1,100 plate appearances since the start of last year), and he fought off two more sliders and another fastball for a full count. Joba then challenged him with a fastball, but the pitch rose out of the zone and the bases were loaded with two outs.
It was a two-run game at the time, so the typical uneasiness of a Joba outing was compounded about a million times over. His first pitch to the hacktastic Jose Guillen was wide for a ball (gulp), but Joba got Guillen to roll over on the next heater for an inning-ending ground out. It was a stressful inning, no doubt, and the first two baserunners weren't entirely Joba's fault. Still, would it kill the guy to have a 1-2-3 inning once in a while? I'm not sure how much more I can put up with this, .401 BABIP or not.
Alex Rodriguez took another step towards history tonight, clubbing career homerun No. 599 in the 7th inning. It was an opposite field job off reliever Robinson Tejeda, and the three pitch at-bat really allowed A-Rod's greatness to shine. Consider the sequence:
First Pitch: 92 mph fastball, swing and a miss
Second Pitch: 94 mph fastball, fouled off
Third Pitch: 94 mph fastball, gone
If you throw a hitter as smart and physically gifted as A-Rod the same pitch three times in a row, you're asking for trouble. He saw it the first time, adjusted the second time, and locked in on it on the third try. Might as well have put it on a tee.
Although he merely doubled in his final at-bat of the game and first shot at No. 600 in the 9th, Alex is now one swing away from history. My money's on a first inning three run homer off Kyle Davies this Saturday, just like No. 500. Baseball is weird like that sometimes.
A Little Bit Of This, A Little Bit Of That
Posada had what we'll call an adventurous night behind the plate in this game. He lucked out in the 5th when home plate ump Eric Cooper called Butler out on a play at the plate even though Jorge didn't even tag him. Replay showed he wasn't close to tagging him, either. An inning later, he made what might have been the dumbest decision in baseball history. The unparalleled Yuniesky Betancourt struck out on a breaking ball in the dirt, and instead of throwing to first for the sure out, Posada threw to third to try and catch Willie Bloomquist napping. The throw was offline and went into leftfield, Bloomquist scored and the YuniBomber ended up at second. CC Sabathia bailed him out, but goodness. Bloomquist struck out on a ball in the dirt the next inning, and Posada lobbed the ball to first for the out, except he almost chucked it into rightfield. Mark Teixeira bailed him out that time. Definitely not a night they'll relive on Jorge's Yankeeography, go-ahead double or not.
CC Sabathia wasn't especially sharp on Thusday, but he did take the ball into the 7th inning as usual. The 15 combined hits and walks he allowed are a new career high, but he limited the damage thanks to nine strikeouts. The big guy did what aces do, kept his team in the game even without his best stuff or command.
Big ups to David Robertson for another fireman act in the 7th. He entered the game with a one run lead and two men on base with just one out, but a pop-up and a strikeout later the Yankees were out of the inning. I can't imagine either he or Joba will be available tomorrow after pitching in each of the last two games. I guess that makes Boone Logan and Jon Albaladejo the de facto setup men tomorrow. It's better than Chad Ho Moseley.
Brett Gardner had two outfield assists in this one: one on Wilson Betemit at second to end the 1st (before Guillen crossed the plate, saving a run), and another on the Butler play at home. The replay showed that both guys were safe, Butler by a mile, but I'm not complaining. Kinda makes you forget that he's had just one hit in his last 19 at-bats.
Tex went 3-for-4 with a double off his personal whipping boy Bruce Chen, extending his streak of reaching base safely to 38 consecutive games. They should invite that guy to Spring Training every year just so Tex could face him and hopefully get off to a hot start.
David DeJesus sprained his thumb and will miss the rest of the series, but it could have been a lot worse. It looked like he messed up his wrist crashing into the fence on a Derek Jeter fly ball that turned into an inside-the-park homerun, but apparently the wrist is fine. Hopefully DeJesus gets well soon, he's a good player that deserves to be traded to a contender before next week's deadline.

Same two teams, same time tomorrow. A.J. Burnett gets his shot at redemption against Brian Bannister.
Another day, another extra base hit for Montero
Baseball America posted a list of the 15 largest bonuses ever given out on the International market. The Yanks are on there twice, for giving Gary Sanchez $3M (third most) and Wily Mo Pena $2.44M (eighth most). Just eyeballing it, the four bonuses listed from 2006 and earlier were busts, though you could make a case Byung-Hyung Kim wasn't.
Also, MLB is going to start blood testing for human growth hormone in the minors. That's kind of a big deal.
Triple-A Scranton (5-2 loss to Gwinnett)
Kevin Russo, LF: 0 for 5, 2 K
Reegie Corona, 2B & Eric Bruntlett, RF: both 0 for 3 – Bruntlett walked & K'ed
Eduardo Nunez, SS: 2 for 3, 1 R, 1 K, 1 SB – 11 for his last 33
Chad Tracy, 3B: 0 for 4, 1 K – remember that hot start? he's five for his last 28 (.179)
Jesus Montero, C: 1 for 4, 1 2B, 1 K – one of those outs was loud
Jorge Vazquez, 1B: 2 for 4, 1 R, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 K – third homer in his last seven games
Chad Huffman, DH & Greg Golson, CF: both 1 for 4 – Huffman K'ed twice, Golson once
Zach McAllister: 5.1 IP, 10 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 2 BB, 3 K, 1 HBP, 8-3 GB/FB – 57 of 92 pitches were strikes (62%) … picked a runner off first … 127 H in 102 IP
Eric Wordekemper: 1.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 0 K, 3-2 GB/FB – 12 of his 21 pitches were strikes (57.1 IP)
Zack Segovia: 1 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, 2-0 GB/FB – 16 of his 25 pitches were strikes (64%)
Royce Ring: 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 2 K, 1-0 GB/FB – 13 of 21 pitches were strikes (61.9%)
Game 94: Bring on the Quarter Pounders
I love that movie. If you've never seen it (see it!), the dialogue in the scene above involves John Travolta telling Samuel L. Jackson that people in France call a quarter pounder a Royale. Ever since I've heard that, I've referred to Kansas City's baseball club as the Quarter Pounders. Perhaps I should grow up.
Anyway, back to something relevant. Tonight's game features a pair of lefties that were both ranked among the best lefthanded pitching prospects in the game by Baseball America at one point. Bruce Chen, who gets the ball for KC, was ranked as the fourth best prospect in the game way back in 1999, and two years later his counterpart CC Sabathia was ranked as the seventh best prospect in the game. Obviously their careers have taken very different paths, with CC living up to his promise while Chen has gone to play for ten different big league teams and in the minor league system of one more. He's got half decent numbers this year (4.35 FIP, 5.01 xFIP, 7.34 K/9), but still, it's Bruce Chen.
Here's your starting nine…
Jeter, SS
Swisher, RF
Teixiera, 1B – he's 7-for-11 with a double and six homers (!!!) off Chen in his career
A-Rod, 3B
Cano, 2B
Posada, C
Thames, DH
Granderson, CF
Gardner, LF
And on the mound, the Big Stoppa, CC Sabathia.
The Royals traded third baseman Alberto Callaspo the Angels earlier this afternoon, so we'll see old buddy Wilson Betemit man the hot corner for KC tonight. Who did they get for Callaspo? Sean O'Sullivan (and a minor leaguer), who beat the Yankees the other night. Lots of Yankee ties in that move.
The first game of this very welcome four game set with the Royals (no Zack Greinke, woo!) starts at 7:05pm ET. The game is on YES as (almost) always, and it's also part of MLB Network's regional coverage tonight. Depending on where you live, you'll either get Yanks-Royals or Twins-Orioles. Enjoy the game.
RAB on Bloomberg Sports, Fangraphs
As River Ave. Blues continue its quest to take over the world, we've made a few appearances in other sports media outlets worth exploring. Over at Frangraphs, Joe took a top examination of the Yanks' deadline needs. He says the team could stand to find a platoon partner in center field and needs some obvious help on the bench and in the bullpen. Sergio Mitre too remains an unknown.
Yesterday morning, at the bright and sunny hour of 8 a.m., I recorded a video segment with Bloomberg Sports' Ballpark Figures. The piece a five-minute bit with Bloomberg TV host Michele Steele and Bloomberg Fantasy Sports Analyst Rob Shaw, and we talked about A-Rod's 600th home run, the team's deadline needs and other sundry stories swirling around the Bombers. Catch the video at the link above or watch it below.

Movie review: 'A Royal Affair' aspires to be period piece
When they arrive back in Denmark, the queen doesn't initially trust the doctor, despite his knack for redirecting the king's worst impulses. Once she discovers his secret collection of Enlightenment literature, though, Struensee and Caroline Mathilde bond over their mutual devotion to free thinking and high ideals.
The physician becomes confidante to both royals. In one of the film's most affecting scenes, he sits holding hands with the couple after inoculating their young son from smallpox. It's a poignant foreshadowing of how complicated their love triangle would become.
As their relationship moves from avid talks and long walks to passionate secret trysts, though, Struensee and Caroline Mathilde provide their political enemies — especially the king's scheming stepmother (Trine Dyrholm) and a power-hungry priest (David Dencik) — with ample means and opportunity to counter their idealistic crusade.
A framing device of the exiled queen penning a heartrending letter to her far-off children makes some of the outcomes clear, but the period drama remains gripping to the end, which is not as grim as it might have been. Sensitive performances from the three principles keep it captivating.
Thanks to top-notch work from cinematographer Rasmus Videbæk, production designer Niels Sejer and costumer Manon Rasmussen, "A Royal Affair" is gorgeous to watch.
