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.

If you have been paying attention on Twitter, the Royals are extremely active in the pitching market and potential trades. Not in the big names of course, but alot of them. It's something you don't see from them normally. Lots of smoke out there and it's from the big name national guys. [Reply]
Baseball economics need fixed so badly. Shohei's contract AAV is more than the whole 40 man payroll for like 4 orgs last year. Seems like an equitable system. [Reply]
