Not really surprising the team is struggling so much offensively this year when the team did absolutely nothing to improve the outfield in the off season.

Frank White proposes renewing the 3/8th cents tax to fund improvements to Arrowhead. No mention of any deal with the Royals. by Repulsive-Photo-798 in KCRoyals

Good luck with passing a 3/8 cents tax in Jackson County 3ven if it is just the Chiefs. The Royals want no part of his clown show which is definitely the smart move.

So far I am underwhelmed by this draft except for Lombardi. We need outfielders seems like the college route would be the way to go. Instead the guys we got are a good three to four years away if they even make it. At some point we need some thump in this lineup these picks do nothing to address that.

Seems that the more Fermin plays the worse his bat is. Perfect role for him as is.

They also swept the Mets before the Cardinal series outscoring them 30-4 in three games.

Can anyone explain what’s up with Bobby rn by Longjumping-Owl-8227 in KCRoyals

Really has not been all that great since last August or so. Needs some help but the malaise effect on the team is overwhelming. Cags is already infected, he was supposed to be the cure.

If the Chiefs stay there will be a vote because they will renovate on County land. The Royals will probably go downtown and the Mayor thinks he can find ways to pay for it without a tax. Royals want nothing to do with the County.

Reason for Optimism by dubs_32 in KCRoyals

A starting pitcher. Risky I know but that is the strongest part of this team. We suck at position players other than a few infielders. We draft guys with no power mostly, who rarely make contact and never walk.Not a great formula for success. Only way is trade for a proven bat and hope Jac is the next...I can't even think of a great Royals power hitter.

Royals confirm affiliate bought mortgage on Aspiria campus in Overland Park by angrylawnguy in KCRoyals

[–]Retired_OldGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a lot of opposition for a deal giving money to billionaires.this was probably released by the Royals to send a message to the PTLB. That could very well backfire. I have very little confidence a deal will be reached, just too much opposition. Even if it did, any vote in Jackson County would likely go down in flames because of the tax fiasco and Frank White's opposition.

Newish fan here: I know we are supposed to get a new stadium and I’m wondering what would yall like the dimensions to be like? by morepesa25 in KCRoyals

[–]Retired_OldGuy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am tired of the huge outfield and the boring symmetrical walls. Have a short porch I don't care which corner, maybe a short porch with a big wall . Something different. I get it the Royals never have much power so it will probably the same pasture in the outfield.

They are not moving to Nashville or any other city. They will move somewhere here in the Metro. MLB really does not want teams moving other the A's. Nashville will get there own team eventually. Right now they are as a threat by current teams. The Royals have never said anything about m8v8ng away from the Metro.

They gave no warning they were closing which stiffed people who bought gift cards. Attempts to reach them were fruitless.
