The season is upon us, even if spring is not.

2018 MLB Draft Picks
#18
#33 - Compensation (Eric Hosmer)
#34 - Compensation (Lorenzo Cain)
#40 (Competitive Balance Round A)

018 Draft Names to Watch

RHP Kumar Rocker, N Oconnee HS, Georgia.
Spoiler!

OF Jarred Kelenic, Waukasha West HS, WI
Spoiler!

1B Triston Casas, American Heritage HS (FL).
Spoiler!

RHP Carter Stewart, Eau de Gallie HS (Ga).
Spoiler!

ANY Any, Any (Any). Any current top projected pick who slides for injury concerns. Includes current top prospect prospect SP Brady Singer, U of Florida.

Current Prospects to Watch:

OF Seuly Matias - Huge tools. Hit 2 HR in Lexington (A) season opener.

1B Nick Pratto - Top pick in 17 has advanced approach and good glove; needs to start tapping into power in first full year in minors. Also at Lexington.

OF Michael Gigliotti - Good defender in CF, good OBP skills, plus baserunner. Next mainstay in CF for KC, IMO. Advanced college bat also starting at Lexington.

OF Khalil Lee - Probably has highest upside in Royals' system. Could hit 30 HR in majors, could steal 30 bases. Plus defensive ability in RF. Nice test at Wilmington this year.

3B Emmanuel Rivera - Really nice approach and good contact skills. Power is still developing. Also getting a good test at Wilmington.

SP Foster Griffin - Made nice strides in 2017. Needs to continue to progress in 2018. Could be a lefty version of Jakob Junis (good breaking ball that he can really manipulate, OK fastball, good command).

1B Samir Duenez - Duenez still is intriguing, hoping for a step forward in his power production this year at Northwest Arkansas, which would turn him into a legit prospect.

Others to keep an eye on:
SP Gerson Garabito (Wilmington), OF Marten Gasparini (Lexington), C MJ Melendez (Lexington), RP Tyler Zuber (lexington), RP Richard Lovelady (Omaha), SP Dan Tillo (Lexington), SS Nicky Lopez (NWA), SP Scott Blewett (NWA), OF Brewer Hicklen (Idaho Falls),

In general, Lexington and Wilmington are the most interesting spots to watch. Nice depth and a lot of interesting pieces at both.

And then the bullpen showed up....

I think this is the 4th or 5th straight game we've gone from winning to losing....

40 games under. Almost half the season is left and we could go .500 the rest of the way and still lose 100 games.

Hilarious people ripping on the Royals players after they're gone. Hosmer is a pos now? JFC I will always love those players regardless if they are not superstars then or now. They were good and an awesome team. 2014-2015 was magic...some of you don't deserve those seasons.

Yes I'd love sustained success going forward and hope GMDM can do it again. We'll see. They got alot of work to do and need to hit with their picks.

I will forever love Hos. My highest repped post ever was a full love letter about his performance in the 2015 postseason. I just have a habit for keeping an eye on past Royals players after they've left. I wish everyone who was a part of that 2014-2015 run (even Dusty Coleman) nothing but the best.

I'm not going to write off Hosmer quite yet. He has such a weird habit of having down years in even numbered seasons. Every single time. I don't totally understand it.

He's a weird guy, he goes 500 ab streaks of hot or cold. i wouldn't even call it streaky. Just ends up with odd seasons.

I worded what I said completely wrong, I wasn't trying to take away that the Royals won a world series or were a top of the line time for a period.

It was just that I didn't feel that they did a great job of developing all of those guys to their full potential.
