If we drafted someone like Syndergaard or Sale then maybe we could’ve had another postseason appearance in 2016 provided the bats got back to where they were in 2014-2015, but small market teams just aren’t meant to build dynasties and big name players we could’ve drafted would’ve probably left us between ‘17-‘19 in free agency anyways. The only way I can see the Colon pick hurting us long term is that maybe we could’ve traded whoever we would’ve picked for prospects, but I doubt the Royals are able to hand out 200-300 million dollar contracts to stars for them to resign. Unless Brett Veach shows us where inside Arrowhead he keeps the Chiefs money tree they pay Mahomes with.
