Royals went from 56-106 to 86-76.

Made the playoffs. Took out the Orioles on the road.

Lost in four games to the Yankees by 4 runs.

Finally got a bullpen.

Had two pitchers who will finish in the top five for the Cy Young.

Bobby Witt jr turned into a superstar likely being an MVP #2 to that phag in NY.

Salvy just kept doing Salvy stuff.

Vinnie came back from shoulder surgery and had a helluva year.

Cole Ragans had a full season. His arm didn’t fall off. He’s probably top five for Cy Young.

Seth Lugo is gonna finish top five for Cy Young. He’s like Rick Reed. And he’s ours for at least another season.

Brady Singer will get his next time with arbitration. And I’m ambivalent, but I know it’s damn hard to find healthy arms who could be be better as a 3/4 starter.

Michael Wacha was more than everything we could’ve ever wanted, but I say let that man fly unless he wants to take a dumb contract, which he won’t do.

That gives us Alec Marsh who was pretty great for his role.

And we have Wright coming in, plus Bubic who could start.

But this team needs another bat and wingman for Bobby. It’s perfect that Juan Soto would fill many roles, but it ain’t happening.

Adames is someone I like. And we can dangle Massey/Garcia. Just a thought.

This team…. I hope they go into the offseason working hard, and I hope they got the glitter out of their eyes.

Good team with obvious weakness, and a perennial superstar ready to erupt….

Sherman and JJ should be on the phone soon

MLB Network just mentioned that BWJ has joined A-Rod as the only shortstops to ever win a batting title, gold glove and silver slugger award.

But check this...

Bobby is the first and only shortstop to ever do it all in the same season.

Holy shit.

He's an impressive young man, for sure.

Interesting. I wouldn’t say no outright, but I’m not sure that’s a price I want to pay.

Judge Chris Lopez gives Diamond Sports Group the green light to get out of bankruptcy. One objection remained entering today, from the U.S. Trustee about legal releases, and Lopez says he's OK with the releases.

"I'm going to approve the plan," Lopez said.

Twenty months later.

Diamond Sports Group says in court "there is an additional team we remain in discussion with." Although not named in court, this continues to be the Kansas City Royals. No deal has been reached yet.
