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.

The Royals are going to value him more over literally every other team. This almost 100% feels like a trade where you'd get some decent prospects but probably midrange guys, maybe a top 100 player if you're very lucky, and now you've traded your best player for lottery tickets and the fans are more angry than ever.
Miami seems to be the only team where I could see a trade for Salvy working out.
Trading the most popular Royals player of all time not named George Brett at a time when trying for a new stadium and being perceived as cheap already. Damn you have to win that one. [Reply]
This is the first High-A strikeout for #Royals no. 2 prospect, Ben Kudrna. You can see why he's among the best in the minors at creating swinging strikes. He's 12th in the entire MiLB (min. 60 IP) pic.twitter.com/sMUgkvfaxp
