*****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

Thanks for sharing your stories. He may not have the same pizazz as Uecker, but anyone who doesn’t appreciate Denny is clueless. Being able to listen to any game & broadcast with MLB.TV makes me appreciate what the Royals have even more. There are several MLB broadcasters out there who make the games unwatchable.

Yup. For life long fans who lived in and around KC growing up he was a familiar voice every summer calling games. Thinking about it brings me back to when I was a child and I would listen to him on the radio.

**UPDATED GDT STANDINGS**

The standings are obviously just for the hell of it, and skewed by the vast differences in GDT started by frequent and not-as-frequent posters. Nevertheless, they are weighted first by Games Back (0.5 games each per advantage in the Win and Loss columns) rather than Winning Percentage (just as with MLB standings).

Just like the Royals themselves, GabyKeepsMeWarm and cmh6476 started out especially hot, but have racked up mostly Ls lately.
cmh6476 SURGING up the standings!

That kind of thing.
He’s not the same broadcaster as he was in the 70’s. He and Fred White were a great team. And as the Royals began to show they were becoming a contender, they got extremely excited on their calls.

Frequently I heard

“Hit like a bullet down the left field line”.

“Otis drills a shot into the right center gap, and with his speed that could be 3 bases”!!

And all those times a ball got laced down the line and some opposing RF (Yaz, Steve Kemp, Roy White) would wait for the bounce only to have the ball hug the bottom of the wall and roll toward RC field, they went crazy on those plays.,
