Using your own words, (obviously), describe this team for me.
I can't make heads or tails if they're good, overachieving, mediocre, etc. |

That being said, I don't really trust the bullpen and there are a good amount of damn near automatic outs in the lineup. The OF is basically worthless at the plate. I mean Kyle Isbel is our best hitting OF and it's not particularly close. I figure Renfroe would be kinda mediocre until his power could come up in the summer but he's practically Tony Pena Jr at this point. Sorry guys, MJ Melendez is not good and I don't think he ever will be. I'm on record as saying I think this is a team that lands around the mid to high 70s in wins. I'm not ready to come off of that (to be clear, I hope like hell I am wrong and this team does win 90 or 100 games like some think they can/will). To me, June will be the clarifier. The June schedule is brutal. If the Royals come out of June at over .500, it will be time to fully get on the hype train. Until then, I will take a cautiously kinda optimistic-ish perspective. But I will be rooting for all the unabashed, all in optimists to be right and for me to be eating my crow (which I will do gladly) come July 1. |

But when you look at the nitty gritty, we are outperforming majorly. We have 3 starters with an OPS above .700 and the only reason our offense has been league average is because for the first time I can remember we're just crushing with RISP. No idea how long that can last, but Isbel and Renfroe are below replacement level and MJ isn't a lot better (although I can't give up on him yet). Hopefully 2nd base is going to improve permanently with Massey bc if I have to see Frazier and Garrett Hampson play there regularly anymore I might vomit. So yes...tons of holes in the offense but we're scrappy thus far and tons of fun to watch. I desperately wish we had someone to look fwd to bringing up from AAA to help the OF situation but can't pretend like Waters is gonna turn into some world beater and I thinks thats about all we have on reserve right now. And we don't have a ton of ammo to trade on the farm either, as far as I can tell but I've followed prospects a lot less since Covid. |

I think Ragans is sustainable. Singer and Lugo and Wacha and Marsh will really determine how interesting the rest of the season becomes? |

the Dodgers are now kicking our ass in run differential, but we're still holding onto to that last wild card spot for the wild card game matchup#!

Well well well, look at this! The Pasquatch is tied for 21st in RBIs in the majors.
He's just under an .800 OPS and has 19 BBs and only 16 Ks. He's also still at a super unlucky BABIP of .248. Also over his last 7 games he has 11 RBIs, .400 BA, and a 1.080 OPS. My boy has broke out, baby! PS, this is probably the start of his slump, because I'm bad luck. Sorry about that. |
