Do the Royals ever play a game where they're not trailing at some point? They always talk about we have the most come from behind wins, but I'm pretty sure it's because we trail in every single game we play. It would be nice to lead from wire to wire from time to time.

Saw Lewis hit a bomb and thought “tell me they didn’t try to pitch him inside…”

Yeah. They did.

Royce has the fastest hands I’ve seen in a very VERY long time. Do not pitch him in. He’s going to stay inside it and hit it a really long way.

Kid has HOF hands. He may not be able to stay on the field but you just can’t throw a pitch where they threw that one. He’ll lose it 8 times out of 10.

Singer's ERA lifetime at MN stadium is nearly 10 ERA after today. That's a crazy stat.

Lewis seems to be flying under the radar, too, because all the injuries he suffered dimmed his prospect light. But, he was a 1.1 pick and he's shown it.

Guy just has a textbook power hitter skill-set.

He does such a good job using his legs and his hands come directly to and through the ball.

The Cardinals should just have Jordan Walker watch him swing every day. Because most people don't have the raw coordination and hand-speed he has but Walker does (or close to it).

Even Bobby Witt doesn't have that kind of raw power. Witt isn't going to mis-hit as many balls as Lewis that manage to make it out. He has the wrists that Lewis does, but doesn't generate quite as much power from his legs.

Witt is very probably the best all-around ballplayer in the game right now and Judge is probably the best pure power hitter. But Lewis might have the most hitting potential of anyone out there.
