So...is the whole purpose of the "Kansas City Nice Trys" name change of the account related to the fact that the photoshopped enhanced version of the pic reveals "nice try" on the front of the uniform? Seems like a strained attempt to be clever? Or am I missing something?

Salvador Perez finishes seventh in AL MVP balloting, the only player to take a second-place vote away from Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

Block letters on Kansas City and the stripes return on the sleeves. Not too bad of changes.

Prefer the powder blue changes, I think that looks better
On the roads I liked the script better but those still look good They didn't do anything stupid, always a win in 2021 |

Also...Lucias Fox claimed by Balt via waivers. Austin Cox, Seuly Matias and Haake not protected. Not too surprising, although some team might get lucky by stashing Cox in their bullpen this year.

Haake could be stash-able too. He’s got a good arm and a good breaking ball. I could see a Scott Barlow-like outcome for him. |

I’ll also say this:
It makes zero sense to keep Ryan O’Hearn on the 40-man roster and risk losing Cox or Haake. |

It really is.
I mean, I don't have a doubt that O'Hearn would pass through waivers unclaimed. So if they want to keep him, they could release him and re-sign him after the fact. The only way I can get on board with this is if the stubborn insistence on keeping him around is based on something the new hitting development guys are seeing/saying about him. But even then... we have 1000 Plate Appearances which tell us he's a .215/.294/.401 guy. Now, maybe their plan is to work a deal for Haake and/or Cox. I don't know. They have a surplus there and it would make sense to move some volume for an established player or for a lower level guy who doesn't have to be on the 40-man yet. |
