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.

@bleedcubbieblue: #Cubs trade target: Danny Duffy. Could the Cubs add the #Royals lefthander before the deadline? @royalsreview https://www.bleedcubbieblue.com/2018...source=twitter https://twitter.com/bleedcubbieblue/...912001/photo/1

Also someone noticed on Twitter that Duffy's bio doesn't have KC stuff on it anymore...not sure if that means anything.


Edit-He just changed his Twitter handle to duffman and said it wasn't anything to be concerned with.

Hopefully there will be a good offer

If we’re wondering why Herrera was dealt when he was, this could very well be the answer here.

That and I think they really liked Blake Perkins and the young arm they got for him.

Perkins is .280/.417/.383 with 8 SB in 150 PAs or so as a Royals prospect. Pair that type of profile with his defense, and you’ve got a potential above-average starting CF/leadoff man.

Not trying to go all CP in May("Jake Junis is a CY Young candidate!")but it's nice to see some of these young pitchers stepping up lately.

If not for Maurer we'd have a 5 game winning streak.

PB and Mecca will jump on board when the Royals win again and act like they never said anything about Moore. That's how most betas behave.

When we're finally winning again 4-5 years from now?

They're just going to take the Royals strategy to the extreme. Starters need to go 3, bullpen will finish it out. They have 4 legit closers now, plus Green and Holder who are pitching just as well, if not better, than the other guys.
