Year Two of the Matt Quatraro tenure. Time to take a step up this year. Active in free agency and trades this offseason. A new look pitching rotation and bullpen. Will the young players take the leap up offensively? Bobby Witt extension? New stadium? Will Vinny recover from injury? Salvy taking aim at the Royals record book? Will Cole Ragans turn into the best Royals starting pitcher since Greinke 1.0?

Where does the Royals record stand now with you in attendance this season?

All of this has been true thus far. Gotta give JJ credit. He didn't sit on his hands when things were going poorly. [Reply]
Yuli Gurriel, Tommy Pham, and Robbie Grossman - the three guys the Royals acquired for nothing more than cash after Vinnie Pasquantino got hurt - have combined to go 11-for-34 with 3 doubles and a homer so far, a line of .324/.351/.500. More sweet work from JJ Picollo.

Also we will never know, because they didn't get a chance. It's a good thing we released Brent Rooker because some shit bird needed playing time. [Reply]
