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.

Alec Marsh would probably be next in line if they believe they’ve solved his command issues.
I thought I saw Taylor Clarke and his 6.75 ERA will be tomorrow's starter. [Reply]
Do you think the boys are masturbating too much? Now that they got their freedom I wonder if they’re like kids in a candy store / bulls in a China shop.
Might be too tired, which explains their lackadaisical play [Reply]

They're running an "opener" approach tomorrow, which I'm fine with. I'm not sure this bullpen is really built to sustain that over time (you really do need to build your bullpen intentionally for it).
If they were looking inside the org for a "next arm up," that's where Cox and Marsh could come in.
Cox has a pretty good curveball but not a lot else. There are a lot of areas where you could question/critique Dayton Moore's pitching scouting and development pipeline, but one of the bigger ones was an obsession with the curveball. [Reply]

Well, Jesus Christ allegedly could not hit a curveball, so naturally DM was obsessed with it. [Reply]
