I only ask because it's such a stacked class.
I don't know, man. The spot they could really splash some money and be significantly improved is CF, but the best option there is Starling Marte. He's 32 and you'd be taking a big risk on that contract turning into a stinker in a couple years. [Reply]

FWIW, IMHO, No they will not! I believe the window of opportunity for the kids to move up to the BIGS will present itself. This along with the young pitching will allow a young team to mature and grow together.
If we go with any FA contracts next year will be middle RP. [Reply]
I only ask because there are 40+ high quality free agents which may create a buyers market. If that works out, a team could add a high quality player in a cost effective manner now for a team set to contend in the near future rather than immediate future. [Reply]
Just got a new TV and trying to stream the Royals. When I look up the Bally Sports App in the Google Play store on my TV it's nowhere to be found? Even though it says it's on it online...any help here? [Reply]

My smart tv doesn't have that app...I have to use a Roku or fire to do it. [Reply]

Since Flanny’s tweet on July 5th advising to watch the DL for bullpen arms after the All Star Break due to Matheny’s management, Brentz is the third bullpen arm (behind Zimmer and Holland) to land on the DL. [Reply]
