I would love for Khalil Lee to earn the RF spot out of ST next year. We need to keep adding future pieces into the mix. He's the only position player besides Lopez that looks capable of making the 25 in '20.

Agreed and keep Soler at DH. He shouldn’t see the field at all. Whit can play center field. Re sign Gordon

Lee’s write up was a bummer. Same with Melendez whom they claim they were talked down by peer sources who watched him last year. To me Matias seems like the bat version of Staumont.

Royals are only 3 games back of the second wild card......... :-)

Matias' ceiling is so high because of the raw power. Doesn't surprise me THAT much.

I think they're a little more down on Lee and Melendez than I believe they should be, but that's OK.

I still like Lee's raw tools a ton. He's off to a solid start at AA, too, in his first go at it.

But y’all said I am crazy for thinking this team is a playoff team

3 games back of the 2nd wild card after 15 games is not impressive in any way.

Not Royals related, but still....

Yosted by the bullpen.

BOXBERGER’D

Why is that turd even on the team?

He shouldn’t be. DM has done a shit job the last few years. No argument.

If only there were a proven closer on the market!

There is no way an Organization is serious about winning games when you keep rolling out a guy like Boxberger. I fully realize we don't have a lot of options, but that's the GM's job to figure out before the season. He's done a completely craptastic job with the Pen.

Ultimately, you get what you pay for. boxberger and Deikman et al... are cheap shitty below average players. Glass has pulled in the purse strings and we are hamstung by the Gordo and Kennedy contracts.

That being said, no free pass for DM. Figure it out.
