***Official 2024/2025 KC Royals Offseason Thread***

Royals went from 56-106 to 86-76.

Made the playoffs. Took out the Orioles on the road.

Lost in four games to the Yankees by 4 runs.

Finally got a bullpen.

Had two pitchers who will finish in the top five for the Cy Young.

Bobby Witt jr turned into a superstar likely being an MVP #2 to that phag in NY.

Salvy just kept doing Salvy stuff.

Vinnie came back from shoulder surgery and had a helluva year.

Cole Ragans had a full season. His arm didn’t fall off. He’s probably top five for Cy Young.

Seth Lugo is gonna finish top five for Cy Young. He’s like Rick Reed. And he’s ours for at least another season.

Brady Singer will get his next time with arbitration. And I’m ambivalent, but I know it’s damn hard to find healthy arms who could be be better as a 3/4 starter.

Michael Wacha was more than everything we could’ve ever wanted, but I say let that man fly unless he wants to take a dumb contract, which he won’t do.

That gives us Alec Marsh who was pretty great for his role.

And we have Wright coming in, plus Bubic who could start.

But this team needs another bat and wingman for Bobby. It’s perfect that Juan Soto would fill many roles, but it ain’t happening.

Adames is someone I like. And we can dangle Massey/Garcia. Just a thought.

This team…. I hope they go into the offseason working hard, and I hope they got the glitter out of their eyes.

Good team with obvious weakness, and a perennial superstar ready to erupt….

Sherman and JJ should be on the phone soon

Yes.

That would be sarcasm.

Manaea would be an interesting fit. He really found something with his new arm slot in New York.

A fun homecoming, though I’d think you’re not bringing back Wacha at that point.

Cody Bellinger exercised his option to stay with Chicago in 2025.

Looking at balllpark factors cooled me on Bellinger a LOT. His power has really dropped off, but Wrigley has helped mask it.

Cole is trying to get the Yankees to tack on an extra $36 million and a year by terms of the deal.

But it is a curious move by Cole and Scott Boras considering he's 34 and he would be competing with younger pitchers Corbin Burnes, Max Fried and Blake Snell for free agent deals.

Wow they resigned Wacha. Thought he might test free agency. He is 33 but he definitely was locked in during the 2nd half.

Looks like it's $17 million a year.

That's a good sign with Wacha resigning. Shows the Royals are in it. Looks like we may become the 00s Cardinals

Things I care about more than anything they do in the offseason

How good are the hot dogs?
How many Topsys stands are there?
What are the Craft and Draft options?
When are the bobblehead days?
How much will the pretzels be?

Good signing. Fair deal.

Now the Royals can focus on what they need to with a lead off hitter and a corner OF bat with some power.
