If the Royals can get some starting pitching who can take some bulk innings, our bullpen is looking to be sneaky good.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Like to see the Royals looking at some of the better starters on the market. Lucas Giolito and Marcus Stroman appear to be on their radar, as are others.</p>&mdash; Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) <a href="https://twitter.com/JonHeyman/status/1734052756321702038?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 11, 2023</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

I really hope we get Giolito.

Twitter has been floating Ryne Stanek to the Royals as well. Overland Park native, former first round pick of Rays. Reliever/opener type.

More smoke on pitchers. But Flaherty can get ****ed with an AIDs covered dildo
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">The Royals are indeed interested in Marcus Stroman, as <a href="https://twitter.com/JonHeyman?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@JonHeyman</a> reported, but Kansas City is casting a wide net in its search for pitching.

Will Smith official. They DFA Snider finally.

Man after all that talk of Stroman and Giolito it's gonna be Lugo and Smith.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Lugo’s contract with the Royals is for three years and $45 million, per source.</p>&mdash; Mark Feinsand (@Feinsand) <a href="https://twitter.com/Feinsand/status/1734666397421056019?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 12, 2023</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Well **** that's half the pay roll isn't it?

Jordan Lyles and Seth Lugo holding it down I see.

They may not be done.

Stroman left the Cubs with 21 million on the table...he is probably not signing here
