The Royals big money signings in Latin America haven’t been great (and the success rate is not great across Baseball, either). They’ve found some nice lesser-hyped talent there but need to step it up.
I’m hoping they’re sitting back on the Mesa kid. If they’re not in that, they should move some of the money to one of the teams who is and get some prospect value out of it.

Not accusing you of offering it as an excuse, just speaking in general. I appreciate your input you give on here, it's nice to have a knowledgeable person giving some good insight.
