3-1 on season Jorge Soler blasted 3 homeruns and had 6 RBI at Comerica Park where the Kansas City team beat the Detroit ballclub by the score of 12 to 6. Soler had a big day with his bat. He laced a one-base hit plating a run in the 1st inning, lofted a three-run 'big-fly' in the 2nd inning, lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' in the 7th inning and hit a bases-empty home run in the 9th inning. Offensively, Kansas City was a juggernaut. They scored in 6 separate innings. The win went to Mike Montgomery(1-0) who allowed 2 runs in 5 innings. Daniel Norris(0-1) was the loser. He was not very effective, surrendering 7 runs in 2 innings. 'I was really seeing the ball today,' Soler said 'I wish it was always this easy.' |

Joe Poz article today on "Favorite Player" Dan Quisenberry.
He's my all-time favorite Royal as well, and his is the only baseball player jersey I own. The article is worth the click (and The Athletic is offering 90 days of free access if you don't yet support). |

If you're an old-time Royals fan, Ed Farmer was a villain. In one game in 1979, he hit two Royals with pitches -- broke Frank White's hand and Al Cowens' jaw. They each missed a month. The Royals finished second in the division by 3 games. A year later, Cowens had been traded (first to the Angels, then to the Tigers). He faced Farmer again, and when he grounded out he ran straight to the mound and fought Farmer. |

Ed Farmer was a gigantic POS.

Even without college or high school seasons, the Royals won’t be selecting blindly. The following are players scouts such as Farr have keyed in on for years, players who, like Lynch, have the potential to make a serious future impact. Quote:

I really hope this whole thing doesn't have a really negative impact on Witt Jr. He needs to develop quickly and all this does is stunt that. Hopefully he doesn't turn into Bubba ****ing Starling. That'd be depressing and a huge hit to the franchise.

On another note, if the season is never played I wonder how draft order for next year will be handled. |
