Get so hard?

Something needs to flip or this team might seriously lose 120 games.

Haha sorry...HIT so hard

Oh no. They might fall out of last place.

Inflation still high and property owners are getting 246% increases. Awful time to ask the taxpayers for MORE money

They didn't get a lottery pick this year, so they haven't even started that streak yet. They have the 8th pick and top 6 are considered lottery picks.

If you don't receive revenue sharing, then you just can't have consecutive top 6 picks.

Also, according to MLB.com teams that receive revenue-sharing payouts can't receive a lottery pick for more than two years in a row and those that don't can't get a top 6 choice in consecutive drafts.

A lottery pick is a top 6 pick. The Royals haven't received a lottery pick, because they have pick 8 this year, so they can still get a top 6 pick next year (2024) and the year after (2025). They were in the lottery, but every team that isn't in the playoffs is in the lottery. That doesn't mean they received a lottery pick.

Lynch has the exact same issue a bunch of other Royals pitching prospects have, he doesn't throw hard enough to get away with mistakes. If his control is off he is either going to walk a bunch of guys or get absolutely blistered...or both.

We live in a time where if you're sitting at 94 without a +++ breaking pitch you have below average stuff. In reality a lot of this is on the Royals for using high draft picks on guys who have physical limitations with their stuff. You're supposed to you high picks on guys who are elite throwers you can mold into pitchers..not guys with below average stuff to begin with.

Corbin Carroll (az) = #2 prospect for 2023
Booby Schitt Jr = #2 prospect 2022


Carrroll is 2nd in mlb war age 21, 3.4. Only behind Acuna. Hitting 165 wRC+. Booby 89 wRC+ (league avg is 100, so Carroll is 65% better than avg)

Bobby is the savior of our franchise and don't you forget it.

Similar to where you don’t have a chance in the NFL without a top tier QB.

The Royals inability to develop players properly or really scout properly has left them in a pretty precarious position. They are the worst team in the MLB..on pace for one of the five worst seasons of all time...and the farm system is also bare.

This isn't a team headed to the cliff being helmed by Tony Graffanino or Emil Brown, these guys were supposed to be part of a winning team...it's pretty much at just burn it down and start over stage.

Yeah, we're in pretty deep shit here. Leaving Moore unchecked for years has led to an absolute dearth in talent relative to the rest of MLB and these new guys hired can't seem to develop anything positive with the few workable pieces we actually had.

Just wonder when Sherman pulls the plug. At this point it's a matter of when. He has to be smart enough to know coming with hands outstretched for public funding is going to go rather poorly when you're also fielding the literal worst team in the league.

If there was anything to actually burn down. I believe they are already at the "burned down" and are in the "starting over" part. The problem is that it's a long road when literally no one has the patience to watch without complaining.

I'd be quite content to let them wallow in the squalor they've created were it not for the fact I'm constantly bombarded by bickering about a new stadium and where it's going to be.
