Of the 5 relievers ran put there tonight Newberry is the only one I want to see back. What a steaming pile of shit the pen is.

They will likely break camp with Maurer in the closer spot next year, in the hopes
Of him having a strong start to the season and trading him for something. Which is kind of silly and inconsistent with how they approached 2018 (they could have gotten nice pieces for Scott Alexander and Joakim Soria had they held him). We’ll see Richard Lovelady and Josh Staumont, I think, which could be a pretty impactful and transformative duo. |

Star.
He's going to get so much better when Alcides Escobar is on the streets, too. I can see him now taking advice from Escobar. "ok ok Alcides - what do I look for with this pitcher" - Alcides be like dude I dunno I just roll out of bed and swing at every pitch. |

Another multi-hit game and homer for Mondesi. He’s the present and future of Kansas City baseball.

Thank God he was untouchable as a prospect. That would have been tough to swallow.

Yep - Dayton gets ripped on here. But he had that one right.
It's funny because we saw him in '15 and I was like - yeah the guy's fast, and he did hit one homer a long way (which maybe was '16 I forget), but mostly he looks clueless at the plate. Scouts know what's up though. |
