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.

He's not turning into a pumpkin. This team has had several positives. You acting like Ragans turning to shit would someone be a good thing just shows just how stupid you are. Fuckin tard. [Reply]

I looked after 4 ip or 5 ip and he had like 6 K's and 0 ER. Not sure what happened after that but he seemed like he was rolling for a while. [Reply]

Him having a good little stretch with ZERO pressure gives them false hope and instead of blowing it all the way up they will want to hold on to him. Again, these are all meaningless wins. Now if Ragans finishes strong they need to trade him in the offseason. [Reply]

How does the threat of not having a job mean he has no pressure? You're a fucking moron. [Reply]
Kowar has been good for several appearances. They moved him to the middle of the rubber and tweaked the release after the bad west coast trip. Also the work they've done with MacArthur may be paying off. [Reply]

Playing in the majors is so hard that success by anyone should be appreciated.
Back when MLB had expanded 40-man rosters in September, I would say there were some late season performances that were questionable, but not in 2023. [Reply]

There is NO PRESSURE to win, that is what the Royals do. When there is pressure they shit all over themselves. Once there is no pressure to win they win some games. [Reply]
