Torkelson was taken in the same draft and looks better than Witt, Jr. Could it be coaching?

Torkelson was taken a year later and had 3 years of college.

my bad, I should know better than to believe anything the Royals announcers say...

I know I sound like a bummer fan however I've been around a while and seen the Royals in all four of their WS appearances. From 85 to 14, this is pretty much what I remember the Royals being like. Except now, they seem to keep their players instead of trading them off. Well, the bringing back of old players is something that's a little different, too.

Not a fan of the Davis, Holland nor Greinke signings. Seems like fan service to me.

I think Witt, Jr. will be fine. I also believe that there's a lot of pressure on him to be the next George Brett. Sort of like Alex Gordon; he was going to be the next George Brett. I hope they can just let Bobby be Bobby...
