KC’s minor league hitters didn’t come roaring out of the gate, which makes the challenges steeper for the next front office/manager. So, where do the Royals stand? Likely fighting it out at the bottom of the AL Central. This is a transitional time with a new owner who moved on from longtime executive Dayton Moore this winter. Is the new régime a continuation of the old one’s retro-mediocre management style? A placeholder for something better? A group that intends to modernize how the team is run? Nobody knows yet — another question the Royals need to answer urgently. The team’s current plan of being good a couple of times every two decades and hoping to catch lightning in a bottle in the playoffs is not my personal favorite management style. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2023-zip...s-city-royals/ |

One year 3.75 million. Good signing at that price. All upside and very little downside.

Makaiel (or whatever, you know Escobar & Acunas cousin) Garcia had a nice winter league.
Garcia is .323/.444/.498 with 4 HRs, 13 doubles and 5 triples in winter league. 58 games with 46 walks and 33 strikeouts. He may be better than Witt Jr...at least at SS. |

If we don't have a problem signing Chapman, then we definitely won't have a problem signing Bauer if that was an option.

Why are people so sensitive? Twitter is literally full of people melting down and accounts the cover the Royals being unhappy.
