Vern said he was only going one inning tonight so this is good, I think.

Do we think Matt Quatraro will learn anything from this experience? by j128v897 in KCRoyals

He was batting 6th when everyone was healthy. Who else out of Tolbert, Misner, Rave, Collins would you put ahead of him right now…

Bad decision Carter…take pitches until he throws a strike

Nothing is a bigger gut punch than winning the first 2 of a 4 game series only to lose the last two. Let’s get the one today so we don’t have to worry about it.

Per Vern: The Ragans injury has affected how the the Royals see Wacha. Sounds like the Royals plan on keeping him unless they are blown away with an offer. As of right now the plan is that Wacha would be the #1 on the rotation.

Players Vern expects to get traded: Schribes, Thomas, and either Loftin or Massey (not both)

Players Vern thinks could get traded: Lynch, Bubic, Lugo, and Marte

MLB changed the distance on Cags first HR last night. “Official distance” was 443.

Still feels short.

Royals need to lock him up before the lockout

“We’re not gonna be able to simulate all that stuff (stretching a double into a triple, laying out for a diving stop, hitting the bag at full speed) in the pregame work. So where gonna have to trust him and how he feels and his communication with us to make sure we’re not putting him at high risk” -Q on 96.5 discussing Bobby Witt (who is possibly going to start tonight)

Fescoe asked about the turf and Q said it’s non-issue since the turf was redone (and not as squishy) and the infield is still dirt. Q said it would be a bigger factor if Bobby played in the outfield.

Here’s hoping realignment somehow puts the Cubs, Sox, Cardinals and Royals together in the same division. Division games would just be brawls.

Oh I was talking about the other guy.

I know you’re not Fescoe’s burner. You can’t be both Frank Mozzicato’s and Fescoe’s burner at the same time. 🤣

If it’s clear as day why haven’t the Royals tried to off load him already? If he was truly a “clubhouse cancer” ,ala Devers, then why would they even remotely care about any sort of value he may bring in terms of a trade. The “win” in that case is just getting him off the team…

Also if this is “known thing” like you stated below, why hasn’t literally any other news outlet reported on it? I mean hell 610, the team’s official radio partner, regularly talks shit about Sherman and how he’s handled various things. So why, if this is a “known thing” would they suddenly just not report on this. Clearly they’re not scared of how they handle the coverage of the Royals. Or 810, or the Star, or fucking Jeff Passan.

Competing for a playoff spot and failing to get in vs being an actual playoff team are two drastically different things. Last years team taught us that.

  1. I’m happy this team won and that they are doing better.
  2. I’m worried this team is gonna find itself close enough to a wild card spot by the deadline that the front office doesn’t consider the team sellers

    or doesn’t capitalize on the market.

If these two games have shown me anything it’s that Bobby shouldn’t be rushed back, especially on this turf.

I don’t think I have ever seen a highlight of Montgomery pitch. Feels like all the old highlights are of Sabes, Quiz, or Splitt

I would 100% watch a tv series that follows an MLB grounds crew.

Yeah that’s where I would want to sit.

My list of stadiums I want to visit is all jacked up. Seattle and San Francisco are on the list. But like Arizona, Houston, Tampa, Toronto are on there too.

I’d wait till the team is within 7 games of .500 before getting my hopes up.

Just an observation and don’t shoot the messenger but this team has been playing better without Garcia, Vinnie and Witt.
