*****Official 2024 Royals Season Repository Thread*****





Year Two of the Matt Quatraro tenure. Time to take a step up this year. Active in free agency and trades this offseason. A new look pitching rotation and bullpen. Will the young players take the leap up offensively? Bobby Witt extension? New stadium? Will Vinny recover from injury? Salvy taking aim at the Royals record book? Will Cole Ragans turn into the best Royals starting pitcher since Greinke 1.0?

Free Agents/Trades Acquisitions
Seth Lugo, SP
Michael Wacha, SP
Kyle Wright, SP
Hunter Renfroe, OF/DH
Will Smith, RP
Chris Stratton, RP
Nick Anderson, RP
Adam Frazier, 2B
Garrett Hampson, INF/OF
Matt Sauer, RP

I was originally pissed at McArthur, but not anymore. McArthur has been really ****ing good ever since we got out of May. From June 2nd to July 23rd McArthur had pitched in 16 games and had only given up 3 ER in those 16 games and had a 1.72 ERA during that time. Bubic should have been ready to come in the minute we lost the lead.
Are there a lot of managers in MLB that are pulling their closers midway through an inning?

Not even just that, but the inning fell apart so fast that it's impossible to get someone up. This isn't MLB the Show on PS5. The inning goes strikeout, infield single, walk that could have been a strikeout/double play. Which one of those at bats are you immediately telling someone to get ready? Then it's a double and another infield single on six total pitches. He's still one grounder away from the inning being over and certainly nobody you got up is ready in 6 pitches spanning maybe 5 minutes of real time. Then the home run happens. It sucks that it all went down like that but there is no manager alive who's getting someone up in time to avoid the home run, if there even would have been a different outcome with a different pitcher.

It was going to be a nailbiter the second Wacha came out unless we scored more runs

Is anyone really confident our bullpen can give us 4 scoreless innings. You can shuffle the deck chairs all you want but someone in that bullpen is giving up a run(s) if you turn the game over to them in the 5th

Yost was good at dealing with ppl....which is a great attribute to have but lets be honest HDH took alot of guess work out of anything. He wasn't exactly a rocket scientist.

Why in the **** did we trade Cam Gallagher for Brent Rooker and then DFA him 3 months later? He absolutely raked in AAA with 9 HRs in 20 games and had a 1.199 OPS. We only gave him 29 major league at bats and decided to toss him in the trash.

The very next year he hits 30 HRs and has a .817 OPS in 137 games with Oakland and now this year he's really turned it on with 23 HRs and a .943 OPS in 89 games so far.

JFC, talk about completely ruining what could have been one of the most lopsided trades in franchise history. He's not even an average defender, but just imagine having him in our lineup. We could let BWJ lead off.

Dumping Rooker would have been one of the first moves Piccolo would have made after DM was fired. What could have been.
