Stop being an Internet bully and learn to read and interpret what people say. We are both allowed to be Royals fans and have different viewpoints. When you go above and beyond to argue things I didn’t say, it makes you look like a fool debating yourself.
Now if you want to have a conversation, I’ll ask a few questions:
1. Do you think Matheny has the support of the players still?
2. Do you think Raul Mondesi (I assume you know who he is since you obviously know who Witt Jr’s father is), controls the Royals decisions on his son (despite a somewhat estranged relationship)? Is this why the Royals spent all off season saying Mondesi would have to prove himself, not be the starting everyday SS, and would have plenty of off days to stay healthy? Yet the season comes along and he’s back to SS and playing plenty only to get hurt yet again? Do the Royals bend to a player’s dad, especially if they are ex-major leaguers? If so, as your comments about if Witt Jr’s dad seem to indicate, do you think this is beneficial to the organization? (Note: I would be open to Bobby Witt Sr replacing Eldred at any point even though I have no idea what he’s been doing the past 20 years)
3. Do the Royals make decisions based on what an individual player may want and not what is best for the team, if so, is this problematic?
4. What exactly makes you a superior fan to the rest of us, or at least myself?

1) good question. I dont know but I will be watching to see.
2) I thought BWJ was Mike Witt's son lol but I think bearcat sniffed that one out. He must be Mike's newphew.
Not sure what Raul Mondesi's influence on the team is. But with his latest injury, the Adalberto era might already be over.
Regarding 4, Honestly you are the bigger Royal fan than me. So is everyone else here. Thats mostly because I'm an Angels fan. I like the Royals for weird reasons like they are the KC team, BWJ's blood relation to Angel great Mike Witt, and I thought Vince Coleman was a boss in his day. I might be the biggest Gregg Jefferies fan here. When I pitched at the Babe Ruth level (14-15 yo) I modeled my windup after Dan Quisinberry. So I dig the Royals and particularly their intriguing prospects, Melendez, Vinnie, BWJ, Pratto, and a couple more. I'm particularly invested in BWJ and VP, and I do mean invested - couple bets, couple high buy-in fantasy leagues, etc.
But I'm an Angel fan my friend so you and everyone else has me beat on Royals fandom.
And bro I didnt mean to bully you. You clearly are also a fan. I just love how CP is the last place on the internet still left where you can speak freely and controversially. Its the culture here and it is spectacular.
But yeah my main thesis would be play BWJ and Melendez and Vinnie every day all season long.
No hard feelings mate.
