I still argue beyond PR they need to remain relevant and sexy enough to get a better TV deal next year

If anything, the last run showed what happens when the Royals are relevant. I don't think they need to prove anything to get a vastly superior TV deal.
And really, if they're going to dump and build, just do it. Bringing back Hosmer at that point makes no sense. And I suspect Hoz would prefer a different situation at that point. I'm not mad about it, I'm grateful. It's been a fun run. I get the realities of it. Embrace it wholeheartedly and do it right. |

@JonHeyman: Royals want big prospects for Herrera (naturally). For that reason rangers are disinclined to make big play here.
@jcrasnick: The #Royals have signed pitcher Mike Broadway to a minor league contract with a big league invite. Broadway has pitched in the majors with the #SFGiants and in Japan with the Yokohama DeNA BayStars. |

Look, I know you're a reerun, but I can't rifle thru all the posts attacking these two. You're highly likely to be on my hit list anyway. |

I think Mondesi has looked lost at the plate at the MLB level, much worse than Escobar, but he's only 22. He has a long long way to go before I'd start freaking out. He's still several years from his prime.

Mondesi will struggle at the plate this year...but he will be statistically better than Escobar in nearly every way. Not hard to do, but at least it's a position where we'll likely see an upgrade. I think DJLN mentioned Soler in RF. He's more likely to see action in LF. Boni is clearly more comfortable in RF and seemed to progress defensively last year. Gordon will see a few at-bats a week in CF and probably a game or two on the bench or at DH. Soler will DH as well, I'm guessing - especially if Hosmer is not retained - Moss will see more time at 1B if Hoz is not on the roster.

At least Mondesi might be good.
Soler... well...
