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.

Royals deal with Hosmer was just the opposite of the Padres. He would be making less per year the first few years of the deal with a higher salary later on.

The report was we offered 5 years, $100 million. Which is still a ton of money but not exactly what the Padres offered. That's why it looks so rough, they gave him the same deal, but he holds the options to make it an 8 year deal.

Oh I've always thought Mondesi would do this. I just thought the org was ****ing brain dead by bringing him up way to early in the World Series and way to early in general. I said hew as 3 years away back then and Royals fans would flip out at me.

We also can't forget Soler's start this year. I'm also very intrigued by Phillips' D.

A Rotation of...

Keller
Duffy
Junis
Lopez
Kennedy/Fillmyer,

And a lineup of...

Whit/Cutty (2B/3B) (Depending on if Whit is traded)
Mondesi (SS)
Soler (RF)
O'Hearn (1B)
Salvy (C)
Gordo (LF)
Boni (DH)
Phillips (CF)
Nicky Lopez (2B)

Could be a lot of fun to watch...

Goodwin, Herrera, Gallagher and Cutty, (if Whit isn't traded) are solid reserves to round things out as well. And if we have another Boni or Soler situation, they could step into the starting lineup right away.

Dozier has come on as well as of late.
I would say
CF Whit
LF Gordon
SS Mondesi
1st O'hearn
C Salvy
RF Soler
DH Boni
3rd Dozier
2nd Lopez

I think you can clean up the pen but the SR is still shit overall

I think you have to have an open competition for 3B next spring.... between Dozier, Cuthbert, Gutierrez, Whit(?).... and at first, i think we should let Ohearn have first shot, but he shouldn't be handed the job...I still think Schwindel deserves a look - I love Ohearn but I loved Mark Quinn, Phil Hiatt et al...

Do we really think Moose's market and/or his asking price will be significantly different than last year? Also, with Glass still being in cost cutting mode I'm not sure how much he'd authorize to spend.

Moose is 30 and his numbers dipped this year. That ship has sailed in KC.

Good call! I knew there was someone I was forgetting. I do think we need to find a way to get Phillips 4 AB's a day. There's no other way for a player to finally "click". We watched Mondesi do it after some time, Moose in the same way, and Gordo too.

Sign Moose every offseason, trade him for prospects every mid-season. I like it.
