*****Official 2024 Royals Season Repository Thread*****





Year Two of the Matt Quatraro tenure. Time to take a step up this year. Active in free agency and trades this offseason. A new look pitching rotation and bullpen. Will the young players take the leap up offensively? Bobby Witt extension? New stadium? Will Vinny recover from injury? Salvy taking aim at the Royals record book? Will Cole Ragans turn into the best Royals starting pitcher since Greinke 1.0?

Free Agents/Trades Acquisitions
Seth Lugo, SP
Michael Wacha, SP
Kyle Wright, SP
Hunter Renfroe, OF/DH
Will Smith, RP
Chris Stratton, RP
Nick Anderson, RP
Adam Frazier, 2B
Garrett Hampson, INF/OF
Matt Sauer, RP

Just got moved out to Charleston. This is my fault. They’ve lost every game since I got in the car.

In the old format this (obviously) would have killed any chance at the playoffs. But we aren’t in the old format, so they’re just going to have to keep plugging away the leaks with whatever corks they can find. Stop this streak and put together a .500 stretch to bring home a WC spot.

10 days ago we were all talking about how Cleveland was circling the drain. Now, they’re kinda on the right track with some breathing room.

It can happen.

Where KC is getting a little fortunate is that Boston HAS reinforcements that could help them a lot and for some reason isn't using them.

Anthony and Campbell could come up and provide them a pretty big boost almost immediately. Both guys are locked in in AAA right now and can likely carry that hot streak through September.

They're not guys that are likely to give you 150 games of premier play at the moment (20 and 22 respectively) but both guys can come up in the middle of a hot streak and play damn good baseball.

But Boston's keeping them buried. They're making a mistake. The Royals don't really have ready reinforcements to use but it's not hurting them because their direct competition in Boston HAS those reinforcements but isn't using them.

Yeah, I don't think there is anyway they continue to play this bad. Sometimes baseball happens and we're just having a bad stretch at one of the worst times. Hopefully having this happen now will keep it from happening in the playoffs.

So I'm not sure about tie breakers and everything, but it'll be hard for the Tigers or Red Sox to end with more wins then us.

Here's some possible finishes and what those two teams would need to do to surpass our win totals over our final 22 games(Sox and Tigers have 23 left).

(Royals 13-9)(Sox/Tigers 19-4)
(Royals 12-10)(Sox/Tigers 18-5)
(Royals 11-11)(Sox/Tigers 17-6)
(Royals 10-12)(Sox/Tigers 16-7)
(Royals 9-13)(Sox/Tigers 15-8)
(Royals 8-14)(Sox/Tigers 14-9)
(Royals 7-15)(Sox/Tigers 13-10)

Hell I don't see either one of those teams going 13-10 over their final 23 games, but I can see KC getting anywhere from 9-12 more wins.

It’d be really nice to see Lugo pitch a gem tonight and to get back in the win column.

What a season it’s been…. Lose 7 in a row with 4 weeks left, you’d likely be screwed. Nope. Still firmly there for a wild card spot.

Haven’t had much luck at all the whole season, and it’s really been a pretty shit 2+ weeks for bad luck with Renfroe, Lorenzen and especially Vinnie going down. Schedule did us no favors either all year.

Yet, here we still are. 21 games left, and nobody seems to want the last wild card. **** it if we get it while limping to the finish line, that’s a helluva lot more than 99% of the world would have imagined back in April.

Just the beginning gang…
