The Royals are going to pay for Moore's drafting philosophy for awhile, you can't just flip a switch with something like that.

However, they did recycle a good portion of the development staff. Not sure on scouting. Zumwalt and co. staying is good. They've been doing good work. I think some of the changes made on the pitching side are bearing fruit, at least early. As cited, Bubic and Keller have expanded their arsenals in ways the previous staff was resistant to do, and it has paid off. In the minors, not a lot to mention yet, but Alec Marsh has looked strong for NWA (with the walks down. Encouraging). There's room for some optimism. Especially if you like Maikel Garcia, Nick Loftin, and Tucker Bradley. |

5. Kansas City Royals (4-12) The Good: A bunch of things, believe it or not. Vinnie Pasquantino has doubled down on last year's breakout. Bobby Witt Jr. is finally looking like the prince who was promised. A bearded and rejuvenated Aroldis Chapman hasn't allowed a run yet. New pitching coach Brian Sweeney has helped Kris Bubic and Brad Keller revamp their arsenals to great effect. There are some legit bright spots here. The Bad: KC somehow has the worst K/BB in baseball, even though Pasquantino has more walks than strikeouts. That's because the second half of this lineup is a brutal watch. Michael Massey, Hunter Dozier, Jackie Bradley Jr. and Nate Eaton have gone a combined 15-for-131 with just three extra-base hits. MJ Melendez hasn't settled in at all. The Franmil Reyes reclamation project isn't going to plan. Maybe they can find a way to let Pasquantino and Witt switch off every single at-bat. The Upshot: There’s actually a lot to like about the Royals, especially if the strides in the rotation prove to be real. But the bottom of the lineup is just so outrageously dreadful that a legitimately encouraging display by Kansas City’s arms might not lead to many wins. |

Going on the defensive
This is the same dude that lied to us that Tyreek was guilty as charged because his wife had a nurse friend that had all the dirty details and Reek was a POS. When the truth came out he just slipped away into the shadows and never apologized for anything. I don't listen to anything you have to say in any sport here. Woke blowhard |

I did apologize (and share what details I could) and, when all was said and done, talked about how I needed to change my mindset on DV cases with athletes. That I was going to take it as an opportunity to grow. Also not quite what my sourcing on things was. So hate me all you want, bro. I'm not crying into my pillow about it. Take this as a "gotcha, he mad" if you're so inclined. I'll just sign off by pointing out that I'm not the one triggered by something that happened four years ago. |

And Texas hits a 3 run homer when the inning should have been over.
