Not sure if true, but read somewhere that Soren Petro asked someone who spoke with Dayton Moore who he would pick between Rutschman and Witt if given the chance, and he joked it would be whomever read their Bible more.

While that is most likely a joke the heavy religious influence on the Royals is pretty mind boggling......Mike Matheny is going to be this teams manager for that reason.

Soler does it again. #20.
Apparently the 8th Royal to hit 20 HRs before the All-Star break. |

Soler needs to be in the HR Derby. His exit speeds have also been great.

That first pick is going to be hard to get.

We aren't going to get it. I don't even think we will get #5 as long as Dozier comes back and we don't have more freak injuries. This is not a good team, don't get me wrong, but they are a hell of a lot better than the worst team in the MLB.

Especially if we end up calling up some of the bullpen arms in AAA. Looks like a few of them are starting to put it together down there.

I think Soler should put to rest any notion that power hitters can't survive in Kauffman due to the cavernous outfield. The dude is crushing it. Can he stick to the OF long term, or is he better off going to DH?

He can under no circumstances stick in the OF long term. He's played a ton of OF already this year and he's only a 0.3 WAR. That is how bad he is. For the Royals, he needs to be the DH - and stay there. Boni gets traded or DFA.
