Royals *****Official 2024 Royals Season Repository Thread***** - Page 120

ChiefsCountry · 06:15 PM

Year Two of the Matt Quatraro tenure. Time to take a step up this year. Active in free agency and trades this offseason. A new look pitching rotation and bullpen. Will the young players take the leap up offensively? Bobby Witt extension? New stadium? Will Vinny recover from injury? Salvy taking aim at the Royals record book? Will Cole Ragans turn into the best Royals starting pitcher since Greinke 1.0?

Free Agents/Trades Acquisitions
Seth Lugo, SP
Michael Wacha, SP
Kyle Wright, SP
Hunter Renfroe, OF/DH
Will Smith, RP
Chris Stratton, RP
Nick Anderson, RP
Adam Frazier, 2B
Garrett Hampson, INF/OF

Oakland will receive RHP Mason Barnett, RHP Will Klein and OF Jared Dickey from Kansas City in exchange for Erceg, who is under club control for five more years through 2029. https://t.co/08HpC9vad9

Will Klein has been up for a few games before. He didn't do too well.

cmh6476 · 07-30-2024, 02:10 PM

Will Klein had just been recalled to the MLB club following the injuries to Shrieber and Harvey, so I assume he opens the spot for Erceg.

siberian khatru · 07-30-2024, 02:11 PM

Barnett was the Royals' Minor League Pitcher of the Year last year

cmh6476 · 07-30-2024, 02:12 PM

Loftin headed back to Omaha, probably for DeJong? Won't they still need to open up a spot on the 40 man?

Hasn't been good this year though.

Deal is tentatively accepted by our model, pending Dickey's addition.

Lucas was the As top setup up man...who is our closer now?

cmh6476 · 07-30-2024, 02:20 PM

Erceg will be pushing it to make tonight's game:

Royals fans: you’re getting a dude who will do ANYTHING to win a baseball game. A guy who will pitch ANYWHERE at ANY ATIME for HOWEVER long he’s asked. He has great stuff & is a COMPETITOR. I will root for Lucas wherever he goes. KC fans, you’ve got a good one. Take care of him.
