Never said he sucks. I said he was overrated. Hes going to be a solid MLB player but I don't see a MLB star. People act like hes this transcendent talent.
Ive always said Vinnie > Bobby Witt. I think we can see why but I am pretty happy with Bobby so far. Hes been an avg defender this year which is huge. I said Vinnie will be in the Royals HOF someday before his 1st MLB at bat and hes on that trajectory. .905 ops and a very difficult hitter to exploit. Haven't been wrong. |

They haven't found a true star player to build the organization around and they do not identify the prospects they don't think will make it and move them in trades. |

They should be trading anyone they can trade.

The Royals just flat refuse to trade all of them because they themselves don't know the answer so they are deathly afraid they'll trade the wrong one. Then the minute these guys hit the majors and struggle their value drops a ton. It's a position of fear. |

They should start making trade proposals. When teams really wanna do a deal that’s when you know you shouldn’t. Esp if it’s Tampa, if they like a guy you have, RUN FOR THE HILLS |

The Royals would never swing the Juan Soto deal the Padres did because it required the Padres selecting what prospects to deal. |

Changing your GM to the former assistant GM and changing your manager and pitching coach while keeping the vast majority of the entire organization is not "regime change" |

Royals get a 4 run lead in the first inning and now Keller is doing his best to put a stop to that.
