*****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

That's wrong.

Schanuel had a 161 wRC+ with a 21.1 BB% and an 11.8 K% in 76 plate appearances with Double-A Rocket City.

Jac is holding his own with a 20.9 K% and an 8.1 BB% and a 97 wRC with high Single-A Quad Cities. Decent numbers, but nothing that screams move him up three levels to the majors.

Schaunel has done well in that situation. He has elite plate skills, but the knock against him is whether he will impact the ball enough to be a true thumper at 1B.

I was reading the Atlanta Braves, with all their injuries, worked out Yuri Gurriel. Gurriel is 40!
That's odd he was pretty good last season. Idk how quick he could get ready...assume the royals won't do that

If by they you mean some fans and talk show guys, sure. I haven't heard anyone in the organization mention it.

I highly doubt they do it but if they were to consider it, it would basically be saying that Jac right now can offer more than Freddy Fermin can offensively (there is no way you bring him up to not play most days). I don't think he can at the MLB level. He might hit a few homers but he'd K a metric **** ton and that could have some negative long term consequences on his psyche. At best you'd get a lefty version of Paul DeJong (not the relatively small sample size, close to .300 hitting one, the usual one) and although he has pop, what we need in trying to "replace" Vinnie is consistent and good contact.

Yeah, he's not what anyone would consider to be good so he's basically gonna be a body to give Salvy or Fermin a day off.
