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 offense has been heating up over the last 15 games. They're averaging 5.1 runs per game over there last 15 games. 5.1 runs per game would put them in the top 10 in all of baseball. If only the pitching wasn't a dumpster fire, then we could be winning a bit more. [Reply]
The offense has been heating up over the last 15 games scoring 77 runs. They're averaging 5.1 runs per game over there last 15 games. 5.1 runs per game would put them in the top 10 in all of baseball. In there first 20 games they only scored 59 runs which was good for 2.95 runs per game. If only the pitching wasn't a dumpster fire, then we could be winning a bit more.
I only bring this up because I said they'd start hitting and scoring much better and I was right. I argued with that dipshit Tyreekthefreak about it and I'd like him to come back and beg for forgiveness. [Reply]
After tonight the Yankees are in last place in the AL East, and they still have a better winning % than the Twins who are 1st place in the AL Central. [Reply]

You are the king of hindsight....and a total head case!!!!!!
11 more K's last night. Hard to win when you whiff a third of your at ABs!
They have been scoring more lately and I'm excited about it! I think it has a lot to do with playing the young guys more than anything else. Pratto, Garcia, Fermin have provided a spark and quality defense to this team. Massey has been playing against both lefties and righties which goes against your "percentage" arm chair coaching!!!!!
When you're a team who relys on the Farm system for players versus free agency......you have to keep your young guys playing so they can learn. let em take their lumps so to speak. Don't sit em against certain pitchers playing the computer game!!!! Only thing that gets you is 26 situational players and that ain't gonna win you shit!!!!!
Now scat dlphg9....back to your momma's teet!!!!! Headcase.... [Reply]
It will be interesting to see what happens with the roster when Nicky Lopez & Drew Waters are ready to return. I imagine JBJ will find a way to remain on the Major League roster, but unless the Royals figure out a way to trade Lopez for anything they consider value, how can Dozier remain on the team? [Reply]
Vinnie Pasquantino, Kansas City Royals – Seven years, $54 million
Pasquantino is not a superstar, but the Italian Breakfast has turned out to be the most developed of the team’s hitting prospects. Whit Merrifield is gone, and Salvador Perez is entering his mid-30s, and as the Royals continue to shift away from the last of their World Series winning roster, Pasquantino should spend the next five or six years hitting in the middle of the order. Locking him up now keeps him at a Royals-friendly price throughout his likely prime years.
