This team can either flirt with a .500 record or there are about 21 roster changes necessary to make them competitive. There is no single signing that is going to change where they are.

No but if there is someone you view as part of a winner available you should be in. This years FA class is about 1000 times better than next years and the Royals aren't gonna go add 60 million dollars of payroll in 1 year.

Or because they signed Michael Harris to a long term deal and had no room for him.

In reality Waters was a once top flight prospect that had really taken a serious hit.

they are just clearing out salary so they can sign Zach:rolleyes:

I really don't get the narrative of wanting to sign some players or keep some of our vets. Play the young guys. We are going to suck. Play all the young guys everywhere. Know what you got. Fill the holes in 2024 with FAs. I like what they are doing. Michael A Taylor does nothing for you except clog CF for a young player auditioning for that role.

wowsa

Struggled in Triple A and Braves have their outfield set. It's the type of moves that they should make. He was 800 OPS and looked like a 20 home run guy. Give him an offseason with Zumwalt and he should be fine.

Wow...still think they should have tried him in the OF but oh well...

Mondesi really is made of glass. It was better not to have him in the plans cause its pointless. He blew out his leg last year on a routine pick off attempt.

LMAO Let's trade him when his value is at its lowest instead of waiting to see if we can salvage some and deal him at the deadline. If he gets injured again who gives a ****, if this scrub ass bumpkin for the bullpen is all we can get in return.

This front office appears to have no desire to maximize value...maybe we're just tanking now.

Got pretty much nothing
