The season is upon us, even if spring is not.

2018 MLB Draft Picks
#18
#33 - Compensation (Eric Hosmer)
#34 - Compensation (Lorenzo Cain)
#40 (Competitive Balance Round A)

018 Draft Names to Watch

RHP Kumar Rocker, N Oconnee HS, Georgia.
Spoiler!

OF Jarred Kelenic, Waukasha West HS, WI
Spoiler!

1B Triston Casas, American Heritage HS (FL).
Spoiler!

RHP Carter Stewart, Eau de Gallie HS (Ga).
Spoiler!

ANY Any, Any (Any). Any current top projected pick who slides for injury concerns. Includes current top prospect prospect SP Brady Singer, U of Florida.

Current Prospects to Watch:

OF Seuly Matias - Huge tools. Hit 2 HR in Lexington (A) season opener.

1B Nick Pratto - Top pick in 17 has advanced approach and good glove; needs to start tapping into power in first full year in minors. Also at Lexington.

OF Michael Gigliotti - Good defender in CF, good OBP skills, plus baserunner. Next mainstay in CF for KC, IMO. Advanced college bat also starting at Lexington.

OF Khalil Lee - Probably has highest upside in Royals' system. Could hit 30 HR in majors, could steal 30 bases. Plus defensive ability in RF. Nice test at Wilmington this year.

3B Emmanuel Rivera - Really nice approach and good contact skills. Power is still developing. Also getting a good test at Wilmington.

SP Foster Griffin - Made nice strides in 2017. Needs to continue to progress in 2018. Could be a lefty version of Jakob Junis (good breaking ball that he can really manipulate, OK fastball, good command).

1B Samir Duenez - Duenez still is intriguing, hoping for a step forward in his power production this year at Northwest Arkansas, which would turn him into a legit prospect.

Others to keep an eye on:
SP Gerson Garabito (Wilmington), OF Marten Gasparini (Lexington), C MJ Melendez (Lexington), RP Tyler Zuber (lexington), RP Richard Lovelady (Omaha), SP Dan Tillo (Lexington), SS Nicky Lopez (NWA), SP Scott Blewett (NWA), OF Brewer Hicklen (Idaho Falls),

In general, Lexington and Wilmington are the most interesting spots to watch. Nice depth and a lot of interesting pieces at both.

While I prefer the loss, I'll take any outcome where our players play really well and stay healthy.

They just scored 1 run in a series vs the hapless reds. Who have the worst FIP and worst fWAR.

Two of the batters (Torres and Orlando) in the Royals line up from yesterday are batting below .200. Escobar is batting a whopping .216. And, Perez and Dozier are batting .230 and .239 respectively. That's five out of your nine batters batting .239 or worse. That's pretty bad.

Escobar and Orlando should've been let go over the winter, but, Dayton.

The Twins sent Miguel Sano to high A ball today. Brutal. He was hitting about .200 and his strikeout rate is astromonical. He hasn't played every day but over a 162 game season he'd be on pace to strike out nearly 300 times.

It's going to be interesting to see what the Royals do with the roster at the end of July.

Assuming Moose is traded, who becomes your every day 3rd baseman, Cuthbert or Dozier. Personally, I'd rather see Dozier if Duda is still on the roster. But, then, what do you do with Cuthbert. He's out of options so where does he fit? If Duda is not on the roster, I'd like to see Ryan O'Hearn get a shot at 1st. Still no place for Cuthbert.

And the outfield, you have two of the four outfielders that should be let go (Almonte and Orlando). Bonifacio gets one spot but with Gordon, Soler, and Boni, you have no true center fielder. I'd say give Bubba Starling a shot but he's currently on the disabled list.

With the middle infield, if Whit sticks around, I'd release Escobar and put Mondesi at short. If Whit is not around, you keep Escobar and Mondesi plays 2nd.

The Royals will probably surprise us with some moves we'd never considered.

Gmafb. You cut Escobar no matter what. He's been worthless for 3 straight years and now he's an old SS. Only a doofus would retain such a player

Nicky Lopez is having a great year in AA. What position is he going to play at the major league level? How's his defense compared to Mondesi?
