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.

One thing I heard someone talking about the other week re: Kennedy was how he used to be one of the few guys who threw a lot of high fastballs. Now, a lot of guys are taking that approach. Also hurts him.

I still don’t want to take on an extra year of Fowler at huge $$$ to get rid of him, though.

Yeah at this point you have to just ride out that ugly contract for 2 1/2 more years. It's not like he is hurting the team this year as they aren't close to contending.

The other option is eating it, but that's a lot of money and un-Royals like. Perhaps Pitching him next year and eating the final year is realistic.

No, you wear it now, unless some idiot GM decides to trade for either of them (not including taking on a worse contract).

How about moving his ass to the pen? Maybe he does well there and a team may want him if we eat about half the money.

I'm sick and bored in my last week in Panama - re-watching all the Royals' playoff wins again. Hoo boy did we get lucky - at least through game 1 of Baltimore. It's like the parallel universe version of Chiefs in the playoffs.

WC game (duh): Coming back down 4 in a WC is always lucky. So many balls that were just caught or just missed by the As. Dyson almost over-slid the bag and created an all time Chiefs-esque moment. Pitchout but Norris drops the ball. And finally there were Royals literally in the field of play before Colon scored the winner. If that were the Chiefs you damn well know the refs would have called it.

Angels series first two games seemed like the Angels had about 5x more chances to score, then we pull it out with extra inning homers. After the Royals hit like 2 extra inning homers all year or something.

Baltimore game 1 - Esky homers lol. Gordon hits a ball that I've never quite seen - a broken bat looper that refuses to drift even a foot towards the line. The right-fielder and Gordo didn't move at first because they were sure it would be foul. Just happened to be with the bases-loaded with 2 outs in Game 1 of the ALCS too.

Kennedy has been a MVP candidate for us this year. Without him we’d definitely be picking lower in the draft.
