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)

Probably. There's no way in hell that they are letting him anywhere near the kitchen.

If that’s the actual lineup, we may be lucky to reach 70 wins

100-62 record.

Maybe it will be cheaper to attend our annual two games this year. Pre World Series we could afford behind KC dugout.

Yes!

Of all those questions, I can answer ONE in the affirmative. Just wanted to say that.

I didn't like DM comments about Orlando and burns leading for CF. what's the point, really what's the point? He plays guys like these or Frenchy or Rios or Alshittys or Getz....it really serves no purpose at all.

If he played Bubba 500 AB he wouldn't produce a worse war than Orlando. Or Mondesi 500 instead of Alshittys. If they work out their cheap building blocks for the future

This is kind of the "there's no way Tyler Palko is worse than Matt Cassell" argument, which I've always disagreed with. There's no doubt Matt Cassell is a terrible QB and I would never want him on my team, but you can always do worse. It played out that way.

Mondesi has a ton of talent but there's no point playing him before he's really ready. Last year he was completely overmatched and was on pace to be something like a -4 or -5 WAR player. Not .5... the whole number 5. Escobar wasn't good but he was a 0 WAR guy. It's one thing if a guy comes up and takes some lumps and is streaky, but if Starling gets in there and struggles to hit over .100, that isn't accomplishing jack squat for the major league team or the guy's development. Not even about winning games, it's just a disservice to the rest of the team and the other young guys who are trying to develop.
