It's the end of the world as we know it... and we feel... fine?

2018 is a season of transition for the Royals, or at least it is at this point. Dayton Moore is back. Will he swing full into THE PROCESS 2.0? Or will he try to load up again and make some reload magic happen?

1B | Eric Hosmer | San Diego Padres, 8 years, $144 million ($5 million signing bonus; $20 million/year in Yrs 1-5; $13 million/year in Yrs 6-8 wth player opt out)

Smart for the Royals to take the high road. Hos got what he wanted, his money/contract. Royals rebuild.

The 2 WS appearances and the victory parade will be the Royals highlights for a generation. Happy to have been here for those.

Yes. Sprinting max speed, 28.8 feet/sec, down from over 30 in 2015.


(Whit is now faster, ranking 24th.)


Alex is a joke, as expected. Ranks 291, sandwiched between known sloths Brandon's moss and Evan Longoria

Definition of losing a step, but he's still an excellent defender and perfect 4th OF type. He's also nice insurance for the brittle AJ Pollock. That's a great economy deal.

Losing 90+ games while watching Escobar do his best Neifi Perez impersonation may not be fun to watch. I don't get the whole Esobar thing. Mondesi-Whit seems obvious.

I think if Mondesi didn't look so overmatched last year it's an easy call. I have high hopes for him but you can't run him out there every day if he's struggling to hit .100 either.
