Olivares gets optioned to AAA. Perfect time for him to be getting substantial playing time, but nope we have no room in the Majors for potential improvement because our lineup is crushing it!
The quicker Dayton and Matheny get canned the better. Dayton has an absolutely horrid track record of giving shitty vets with no potential insanely long leashes. He basically says **** you to any prospect that isn't one of the top guys. He's just an absolutely horrid talent evaluator. |
I totally missed that the Royals were dragged into this huge controversy on Twitter. A baseball writer with tens of thousands of followers posted a bunch of tweets listing off all the other teams that have cheated and done sign stealing over the last few years, and he basically said the 15 Royals might have kicked it off because they put their analytics and video teams right next to the dugout. Erik Kratz who was a backup catcher called him out and said that's completely false. The writer deleted all of it and is apologizing today and is begging for forgiveness.

If there was, the team wouldn't have fallen off in 2016 and 2017. The funniest thing about that guy's claims re: the Royals was the statistics that i saw referenced comparing 2014 to 2015, which were slight increases that reflected the upgrades Morales (over Butler) and Zobrist (over Infante) provided. Basic research, brah. |

Weird, arbitrary start date. They did a decent job acquiring pitching talent early on (2007-2010 or so), especially if you include international signings like Herrera and Ventura, then struggled when the draft format changed and the hard slots went into place, and only recently came out of it with the college-heavy approach. |

I don’t think I’ll ever forget that the White Sox traded the best player not named Mike Trout for 1.5 replacement level seasons from James Shields. |
