*****Official 2024 Royals Season Repository Thread*****





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
Matt Sauer, RP

While we have done a few things different than the previous regime, the one frustrating aspect of the Royals that has remained is their total bias towards some players and against others. We trade for Brent Rooker and we play him for only 29 at bats on an awful team and apparently decide he isn't worth keeping. He goes to the As and is a very useful player. We send a comp pick to the Braves for Drew Waters and decide after less than a full season of PAs that he just sucks and has no business playing here even though he's still only 25.

Meanwhile we will give 1500 PAs to Melendez who has hit a career .215, and despite people complaining, I'm 99% sure Garcia will be here next year playing every day despite being a black hole on offense with no power. Hampson and Frazier have been awful this year and yet they still play over the guy we traded for at the trade deadline. I guess Nick Loftin's career with the Royals is largely over after his demotion. If they won't play you over those two guys then you are obviously out of favor with the organization and you won't be coming back. Poor CJ Alexander got 8 PAs and that was his whole career with us despite a 956 OPS in AAA. How can he not get at bats over Frazier and hampson and Garcia? Why is he even in the organization if hitting 950 OPS can't earn you playing time over a guy hitting 500 OPS?


These are decisions that the Royals always seem so stubborn and inflexible about. Unfortunately for Gentry I think he's on the black list of guys who they don't believe in, as he's 24 and it seems like if they aren't forcing you into the club by then like Garcia and Melendez then you aren't going to get much of a shot. Unfortunately I don't see this changing much as much as it might help us.

It's because Piccolo learned too much from DM and can be a ****ing twat at times. It's maddening how some guys get the longest leashes and then some just get a hand on the collar and pulled out immediately no matter what. This front office is pretty ****ing stupid in that regard. Worthless old turds like Frazier and Hampson, guys that shouldn't have ever been brought onto the team, are getting playing time while younger guys that are most certainly better get to rot in AAA or on the bench.

DeJong on the bench again. I know he’s not great but Garcia is clearly scuffling right now and DeJong at least has the ability to hit one out.

Outside of Caglianone, that A+ team is absolutely devoid of offensive talent. I mean Jesus Christ are they bad. They're highest OPS is .639 and only 2 guys above a .210 BA and they have a .227 and .228 BA. My God, that's just pathetic lol.

They should move Blake Mitchell up to A+ and see how he does the remainder of the season. The current catcher there is absolute garbage at the plate.

I know it is only two games but .804 OPS and hasn't even homered yet. So excited about this guy.

Why didn't Harvey get the 9th tonight? 4 run game and hasn't pitched since the 4th and now he will go 5 days without pitching in a game.

Jesus Christ man... You're the guy that calls the hooker, she agrees to come see your ass, then you pace back and forth for an hour, calling her back every five minutes "just to make sure she hasn't changed her mind" until she arrives completely pissed off, but she manages to calm down, unlike you. You hand over the money, she touches your shoulder, you blow your load, night over. Nice job dipshit.

Calm the **** down, the guy has had six pro AB's!

Probably just to make you ask another inane question like this one. I swear, every day you're coming unglued about something. Have a valium or something, goddamn.
