Royals went from 56-106 to 86-76.

Made the playoffs. Took out the Orioles on the road.

Lost in four games to the Yankees by 4 runs.

Finally got a bullpen.

Had two pitchers who will finish in the top five for the Cy Young.

Bobby Witt jr turned into a superstar likely being an MVP #2 to that phag in NY.

Salvy just kept doing Salvy stuff.

Vinnie came back from shoulder surgery and had a helluva year.

Cole Ragans had a full season. His arm didn’t fall off. He’s probably top five for Cy Young.

Seth Lugo is gonna finish top five for Cy Young. He’s like Rick Reed. And he’s ours for at least another season.

Brady Singer will get his next time with arbitration. And I’m ambivalent, but I know it’s damn hard to find healthy arms who could be be better as a 3/4 starter.

Michael Wacha was more than everything we could’ve ever wanted, but I say let that man fly unless he wants to take a dumb contract, which he won’t do.

That gives us Alec Marsh who was pretty great for his role.

And we have Wright coming in, plus Bubic who could start.

But this team needs another bat and wingman for Bobby. It’s perfect that Juan Soto would fill many roles, but it ain’t happening.

Adames is someone I like. And we can dangle Massey/Garcia. Just a thought.

This team…. I hope they go into the offseason working hard, and I hope they got the glitter out of their eyes.

Good team with obvious weakness, and a perennial superstar ready to erupt….

Sherman and JJ should be on the phone soon

Singer

What could he bring back in a trade?

A hitter of similar caliber with similar control.

Singer for Jonathan India is a swap that might work for both sides there.

I would also add that Salvy is a Royals icon at this point. He might get a statue (no fighting by it). They should ride with him the best they can, and maybe push him to retire if they don't get the value. He might be number two behind Brett as a Royals staple...you keep that if you can.

I also don't think they would get much value out of a trade. If they did, I might reconsider what my thoughts are, but I just don't see it being out there.

1. Who knows if he wanted to pitch

2. Who knows if he would’ve been any good

3. We lost approximately 0 games down the stretch and especially in the playoffs due to lack of long relief.

I'm sure MJ Melendez just barely missed the cut in LF.

Vinnie's injury obviously complicated things, but this reinforces the idea that Sal's days behind the dish are numbered. He just isn't a very good defensive catcher anymore and his knees can't take it.

Fermin needs to be our backstop full time next year, Sal can pick up a few random days here and there. Sal needs to be at 1B or DH. Same with Vinnie. They can switch off next year until Cags gets up to the Bigs.

Then you'll have a mess to figure out.

Salvy is still above average at throwing out runners and his framing was not far behind Fermin, which is obviously the hot catching stat these days. But I wonder if Fermin just ran out of gas. He didn't hit at all the last month or so.
