His peers know he’s total garbage too:


According to the poll of MLB players, 62-percent answered Harper as the most-overrated player in the league. The next closest player came in with just 4.1-percent of the vote – Toronto Blue jays pitcher Marcus Stroman took home the honor of the second most-overrated player. Mar 27, 2019

I think the real accurate part of that is the bullpen stuff. Dayton has done a horrendous job of signing bullpen pieces the last couple years and that's the biggest reason this team has struggled. Honestly since the World Series he hasn't had the luck with relievers he had before.

The stuff with Phillips and Starling doesn't bother me as much. But I concede that my opinion is way different than most people. Sometimes it's a good thing to let a guy have some sustained success, especially when it's someone like Starling who never has before. It has not hurt the process at all because Starling spent an extra month at AAA. It's honestly just whining because people were sick of watching Hamilton. So now we're seeing it with Phillips even though he's going to have to fight for playing time, especially when Mondesi comes back. If we wait to bring him in September it's not going hurt anything. I'd rather he be getting every day ABs than sharing a platoon with Dozier, Cuthbert, O'Hearn and Whit.

But that doesn't excuse that they're giving every day time to Gordon when they need to be evaluating young players.

Meh.

The Royals spent $20 million on several random vets in an attempt to get some assets they could flip for prospects.

That worked out with Diekman. Not so much with Boxberger or Hamilton. Duda was an asinine addition, any way you slice it, but the money was inconsequential.

Brett Phillips isn’t playing much at the MLB level but the team also is recovering Service time (if he stays down another month, +1 year). I’m with tk, also, in that sometimes it’s better to take it slow with players, let them force their way to the majors, and experience success before the call-up.

He and Starling have other factors in slow-playing their promotions beyond merely players in their way.

I think the speculation that this money prevented them from doing something with Ian Kennedy is a real stretch. The salary for this year was approved; contracts are guaranteed. That money is spent already.

More interesting topic:

The Braves released Luiz Gohara today, which means he cleared waivers. Lefty. Upper 90s fastball. Former top 100 prospect (pre-2018). Injuries and control problems took him out of Atlanta’s plan.

The Royals should be all over that. Get him to Omaha, see if you can fix him. Huge upside if you can...

Honestly, they need to sink some money into the Maarten Gasparini rehabilitation project.

The Royals can't even keep themselves from ruining their own pitching prospects. How the hell are they going to fix anything.

Will we ever have a Royals draft pick just come in and dominate from the start. Witt Jr is hitting .256/.301 with a .627 OPS in rookie ball. Andrew Vaughn is already in A+ killing the ball. C.J. Abrams is hitting .399/.441 with a 1.093 OPS in rookie ball. Is anyone really surprised that the Royals draft pick (who is old for a high school pick already) is already struggling?

All of those are obvious and are already well known, but there's a lot of contradiction in there. How do you build depth in the minors without being willing to trade anyone of value and without being willing to throw in some money here or there?
You've seen what teams have been getting in the trade market for pretty good players.

People are too desperate to get rid of Whit. He's a very good player under multiple years of control. You don't trade him away for jack shit just because you suck.

If the right offer comes along for him, then sure, send him away.

Perfect. They shroud themselves in total ignorance. How cute. Makes it even more satisfying that we crushed a WS dream that they thought was a total certainty

Football is a far better sport for you to focus your energies on...less frustrating when it comes to young talent. The above comment is using a football mentality with the game of baseball. It just doesn't work like that. Witt is fine and will be fine. Just enjoy the season for what it is! It's a transition year. Nobody expected Dozier or Soler to do what they're doing. Cuthbert is doing his best impression of a prospect again. Nobody ever had Whit on a serious top 100 list. Lots to enjoy. The pitching staff is terrible, overall. But our best prospects are pitchers...so yeah. Before we declare them busts, let's see what happens. And hopefully...all the bad press that the juiced ball has been getting as of late will translate into a more conventional ball going forward. Manfred has to act on that, right?

And to the rest of the negative nancies...it's like there's a renewed interest in the trading approach of Herk Robinson and Allard Baird. Unbelievable.
