Pretty much the same.

Actually was very similar. Their three straight 100+ loss seasons were probably worse, even, than the Royals 2005-2007 stretch.

Houston did a better job drafting and developing during that timeframe than Moore’s group. And even they had the colossal miss of drafting Mark Appel instead of Kris Bryant.

Luhnow is a wizard. Which I think Cardinals fans (and maybe the former Cardinals employee who hacked the Astros) are realizing.

Sure, helps to have a lotto ticket like Altuve become a HOF level player also.

To be fair, Yordano was very much that for us. When we signed him he was a 5'6 kid who had an 85 mph heater.

Still hurts to watch him in 2014-2015. RIP, bud.

@RoyalsFarm: Seuly Matias was compared to Ronald Acuna Jr., and seemingly no one*noticed http://royalsfarmreport.com/2018/04/...o-one-noticed/ https://twitter.com/RoyalsFarm/statu...986176/photo/1

Matias is very, very talented naturally. Early returns on him tapping into that talent are great.

I was a little cautious about him coming into the year, because the Royals’ track record with LA bats isn’t tremendous.

I’m very interested in Kennedy’s start tonight. I’m hoping his good start to the year isn’t because of the frigid temps.

The Royals need him to be very good in the first half. Or, no one will be willing to take that salary on.

The Royals have been awful at drafting for a surprising amount of time

Titty Meat 04-14-2018 04:12 AM

Only exception I'd take with that article is at the end about 3 years of losing because they were in contention most of the year those past few years but yea. The draft part is accurate and alarming.

That was a bomb by Mike Trout.

Jesus Esky. Swinging first pitch at a pitcher that hadn’t hit a barn that inning
