Montreal looking great for expansion. As you know, MLB wants 32 teams like the NFL. Easier for scheduling. We would probably see an NFL style realigning with a 4x4 division setup. That means us, Chicago, Detroit and Minny. More than likely Cleve goes eastward. (It's possible they could push us South into Texas, paired with Colorado, but that is messier)
Anyway MTL has 3.5M people, lots of money, capital for a DT indoor stadium, great baseball demos, it'll work for sure. Ballpark + decent ownership should make them at least Toronto lite. >8M folks in Quebec tv market That leaves 1 last city. Portent Ore, San Antonio....not many good options left. Vancouver? |

I thought Austin was pretty high on the list of potential cities for expansion. And I've read Nashville as well but I don't think they're quite ready yet.

http://www.royalsreview.com/2017/3/3...rkansas-roster
The Royals top minor league affiliates have begun setting their preliminary rosters, with top Royals pitching prospect Kyle Zimmer headed to AA Northwest Arkansas, according to beat writer Paul Boyd. This will be Zimmer’s fourth stint in AA, having spent time their in 2013, 2015, and 2016, although he has combined for just 67 2⁄3 innings there. Zimmer threw just 5 2⁄3 innings last year before he had thoracic outlet syndrome surgery. Zimmer heads up a rotation that will also include talented, but enigmatic prospect Miguel Almonte. Almonte, who had a cup of coffee with the Royals in 2015, was on the cusp of breaking through, but took a major step backwards with a rough 2016 season that saw him demoted from AAA to AA. Right-handers Corey Ray, Zach Lovvorn, Christian Binford, and left-hander Matt Tenuta will round out the rotation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyone think the Royals can win 90 this season?
I'm getting good vibes for some reason from this team. I even think Soler & Soria will be decent this year. Am I crazy? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

10 years ago if I was wearing a Royals hat in public I'd get several disparaging comments from the bfib. Now it's either Go Royals, or crickets....

I thought this was an interesting nugget from Mellinger's season-preview column:

What's shocking to me is that Moore admitted to having the same fears. |
