I saw that and wondered who the last Royals pitcher to win that award was. It's been 14 years which is crazy.
Definitely looks like the best deadline deal the Royals have made in a long time. |

For overall talent received and what was given up it might be the best Royals trade of all time.

I really hope Dayton was a part of those discussions that landed us Ragans.

If we suppose Ragans will be healthy the new few years, that completely changes the post-mortem of the 2023 season. A clear #1 starter just fell on our lap.
This terrible record doesn't paint quite the bleak picture it did a few months ago before Ragans and Witt's breakout. Additionally, some of the younger hitters may pan out. |

I still can’t believe this.
This is like Arrieta to the Cubs, guys. He just made a couple modifications and added a pitch and all of a sudden his stuff jumped up and the new pitch made everything else better. Ragans and Singer fronting the rotation is something you can build from and hope on. Enough that I’ll clamor for a free agent addition at SP and a LH hitting OF with pop. Honestly, if you could add Cody Bellinger to this team for 24 you could really be in business. Garcia - 3B Witt - SS Bellinger - CF Perez - C Pasquantino - 1B Massey - 2B Loftin - DH/UTIL Melendez - LF Waters - RF That. Is interesting. |

If Ragans is an actual legit ace, then I don't see how that trade beats this one.
So far today he's at 3 IP 0 hits 0 BBs 4 Ks. I keep waiting for the dream to end, but he just keeps going out and dominating. He legit looks like the best pitcher in baseball right now. It's insane. |

Salvy said Ragans had the best month of any pitcher he had ever caught
