Tatis down with a no contact injury. The game of baseball is much better with Tatis Jr. playing.

It was bothering him a week ago so makes sense. He'll probably need a surgery after the year. |

I'm not a huge analytics guy, but in "debates" like this, WAR is as close to an unbiased overall tool that there is. So, forgetting all players who played before or with Brett, and excluding pitchers the answer to the "best" Royal since Brett question is Alex Gordon. After him it's Carlos Beltran. Then Lo Cain, but Salvy should pass him pretty soon from a Royals WAR perspective. |

He also missed a lot of time in those seasons due to injury and couldn't really play defense. |

Why wasn’t Merrifield called up earlier in his career? Imagine if he would have been on the 14-15 a Royals at 2nd instead of Infante....

Because the disappointment of not getting added to the roster in 15 led to him completely changing his body and becoming a different hitter with more power. Prior to 2014, Merrifield was nothing special as a hitter. He was a versatile, speedy guy who could make contact. Honestly, his off-season training regiment from 15 to 16 MIGHT HAVE included something that’s not allowed. It wouldn’t surprise me at all. The jump in performance he made is pretty consistent with an offseason of PED use (fringe major leaguer turns into starter/star). |

Where are the Cardinals fans to tell us how Matheny sucks?

You really think Whit has used PEDS??? Dude hasn’t grown at all, he’s stayed there same weight. He’s a contact hitter and last I checked PEDs doesn’t make you make contact better at all
