Yermin-Gate? Is that the year our 3B (ex-Royal) took out Anderson's knee, or was it 2022? Maybe they DON'T acquire Kimbrel? Then we don't stubbornly QO him, end up with Pollock (who took less to depart for SEA)...leading to the ill-fated Benintendi contract, the last big mistake of Hahn's.

Last 3 Flaherty starts vs. the White Sox, 1.56 ERA and 0.92 WHIP.

It would at least make Getz look dumb for signing him 3 times. Or was it Hahn once? It doesn't really matter at this point...but only the FIRST signing actually worked out, and that didn't consider his impact on the clubhouse (which of course the Sox claimed was 100% positive).

Well, if the Sox lose and Rockies somehow beat the Marlins tonight, we'll STILL be EIGHT games ahead of them in the standings.

Go with a legit SS who can actually hit (or convert to the OF) or CF (any besides Jace)....

Pull Cannon...put him on the IL until he's 100% Bring up some journeyman like Scholtens or McKendry to get massacred. Clevinger would be fun, but then they're running out of guys on the 40 man. Wikelman? He's been in relief recently.

He wouldn't be leading mlb in steals if that was the case.

They waited at least two weeks too long from his peak at Charlotte...

Even Sox die hard posters are struggling with Palacios still...another of those "he is what he is" guys. His Sox and Pirates ops numbers are virtually identical. Guys like Rojas and Capra are totally superfluous on this roster.

A closer look at his potential MLB role What position will he play? Where will he hit in the lineup? Beat writer Jaylon Thompson offers some predictions Caglianone is that change. The Royals needed a spark after scoring one run in their last 18 innings. At 31-29, the Royals have clung to a winning record behind a pitching staff that’s carried the load for far too long. For weeks, the Royals resisted the urge to promote Caglianone. He needed to cut down his chase rate and walk more. There was also the transition to the outfield and a learning curve that followed. Caglianone had the best help possible. Longtime Royals coach Rusty Kuntz spent ample time working with him in the outfield. The Royals also deployed Caglianone in the outfield at least three games a week. Read more at: https://www.kansascity.com/sports/mlb/kansas-city-royals/article307675841.html#storylink=cpy

Braden under 250/800...going to take until the second half of 2026.

Just what the Royals need. They've scored two or less runs in more games than the Sox.

Except pitching injuries are much likelier to occur…every reconstructed elbow a ticking time bomb.

Gavin Sheets lol?

Howser...who just might be the most valuable trade candidate if he can sustain 95-97 velo through June as a starter.

Amaya .471/1.062 at Charlotte lol

Former White Sox coach's son

More 2B dropping throws.

Holliday falling apart on defense. Two critical mistakes.

Yes and no, Holliday and Henderson are fine. It's Mayo Rutschman disappointing and injuries to Mullins Cowser and Westburg.

Yet more runners left on base.

Rockies Rangers Royals all with more two run or less games. White Sox at 25. Would be first season sweep for Baltimore.
