*****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

Five in a row is tough.

They don’t have a great answer close to the majors, at Omaha. It’s not a AAAA dude like CJ Alexander or John Rave (whose best case is something approximately like Isbel, anyway).

If you want to poke holes, poke holes at signing Hampson or Frazier in the first place (you can and I will join you). At this point, Hampson is the backup CF unless you want to roll with Isbel every day, and I do not (they need to try to squeeze out some platoon advantages).

You look back at those 2020 and 2021 drafts and wish you could pull a re-do really badly. Pete Crow-Armstrong was heavily connected to the Royals when they took Lacy. Who knows how the Royals would have developed him. He 21 draft has a bunch of guys that would have been much better picks.

Being thin at the top levels just makes it hard to reinforce the good young core that IS here.

But still. I give this front office credit for being aggressive and trying to improve rather than shrugging their shoulders and whining about luck. That’s what a lot of small markets would do.

Hopefully they can recover from this tailspin and get things pointed in a positive direction before the end of the year.

Pham is a league average offensive performer this year. That works. DH him and take his league average production.
