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.

Here's a heads up for anybody looking for cheap Royals gear.

Academy in Olathe has all Royals headwear, apparel, and accessories on sale for 50% off.

I assume this sale is at all KC area Academy stores, but I can't say for sure.

Just when you start to think Junis has pulled it back together, he plays home run derby pitcher. Lame.

IF these young guys are for real, they'll compete as early as next year. Which may not be the best thing for the rebuild, in all honesty. but it'll be fun.

I think our bullpen and the inconsistency of our lineup will prevent us from being true contenders, but we definitely should have more life than we did when we started the year.

Not interested at all. Moore seems to have honestly thought we were roughly 25 or so games better than we are this year which is insane. I do not trust Moore to make an accurate assessment of the state of this franchise and to act accordingly. Being mildly competitive does nothing but set us back from legitimately competing for a championship again. We need another couple of years of top 5 draft picks, and we need Moore to not hang on to valuable trade chips (i.e. Merrifield, assuming we get a quality trade offer).

I really fear we're in a bad situation with all the money this franchise has supposedly lost recently. Pressure from Glass might push Moore to make shortsighted moves to win a few more games and get more butts in the seats.
