2023 – A new beginning for the Royals. Matt Quatraro era begins. A year to see which of our young players will make up the core going forward. Can Bobby Witt Jr become a superstar SS or will go to the hot corner? Will Brady Singer take the next step forward? Will Salvy be Salvy? Will Big Vin or Pratto take first base? Will they find a position for MJ? Who else emerges from the youth movement? Not to mention the development of the new downtown stadium.

Royals score 10 and lose, two of their best relievers imploded in the 8th and 9th. Bullpen walked 6 over last two innings, Chapman gave up 4 SBs. [Reply]

It was another gut punch. Came back from being down 8-1 to take the lead. The young kids are hitting. And then Chapman and Garrett cough it up.
I still love em though.
"If we don't love em now, we didn't deserve em in 15." Isn't that the saying?! [Reply]
