It's the end of the world as we know it... and we feel... fine?

2018 is a season of transition for the Royals, or at least it is at this point. Dayton Moore is back. Will he swing full into THE PROCESS 2.0? Or will he try to load up again and make some reload magic happen?

Pending Free Agents:
1B | Eric Hosmer | San Diego Padres, 8 years, $144 million ($5 million signing bonus; $20 million/year in Yrs 1-5; $13 million/year in Yrs 6-8 wth player opt out)
Spoiler!

3B | Mike Moustaskas | Kansas City Royas, 1, $6.5 million

His source is probably a GM of one of the teams that got cut.

Still could be agents trying to move this glacial market. I'm resigned to it so I won't be upset.

Someone's loading up their social media manager and accidentally hit send.

We got our World Series. Now...we're going to pay for it.

At least I have a cool gold hat on my shelf.

I Love Cain, but in reality he just can't stay healthy enough to hand him a huge contract.

He'll be 32 when the season starts. Thanks, but no thanks. Let's build up the Minor League system and get ready to compete in another 30 years or so..........

Padres beat reporter says the team claims they were hacked. Have to be skeptical of that.

He does say in a separate tweet that they don't have anything imminent with Hosmer. Let's see how true that is.

Padres team official: The club's social media accounts, which posted and deleted Eric Hosmer items late last night, were hacked. As of now, it is unclear how that happened. Although teams run their respective accounts, they technically are assets controlled by MLB Advanced Media.

JMO, but I think that really depends on the deal.

Better check Boras' ISP to see if he was behind it.

It won't be popular and I think Moore is feeding us bullshit saying a total rebuild isn't necessary but it is. Rebuild the next 3-4 years and get that downtown park built just in time for the club to be a championship contender again.

Fuck building this team a new park, unless David Glass wants to pay for it all by himself.
