2023 MLB Season - Royals



  • Royals are smoking hot in spring training.

    They lead the league in offense.

    Is this a fluke or a sign for improvement this year under new coaching staff.



  • @AsadZ hopeful!



  • @AsadZ Ha its definitely a fluke. Most of the guys playing in Spring Training won’t make the roster.

    I think the thing I’m most hopeful about is that the pitching improves. It sounds like players were pretty adamant that they were being held back by the former regime. If the pitching situation isn’t as bad as it seemed at the end of last season, then I think you can start that transition from a perennial loser to trying to win some games.



  • I get a sense that this staff is making day to day environment more casual than previous regime which is appreciated by players.



  • Not royals but the star reliever for the mets Edwin Diaz, 20 million contract this year, injured himself in a postgame celebration in the WBC. May be an ACL. Awful scene after the game. His brother is a teammate and he was just bawling on the field.

    Kendrys Morales did the same thing years ago. Celebration injuries.



  • @Jethro I did the same thing too. An all important church softball game to boot. Scored 5 in bottom of 7 to win, jumped to high five a friend next thing I knew I was laying on the ground screaming. My friend kept yelling at me “are you serious?” I answered yes every time but he still didn’t believe me! When he saw the bottom half of my leg perpendicular to my top half he believed me.



  • @wissox I assume you were screaming words appropriate for church.



  • @wissox Damn, even tho Sox are rivals you never want to see such injuries



  • @AsadZ I don’t even want to say ‘fortunately he’s a Met’ but he’s not on the Sox.

    @mayjay Word would have gotten back to my parents had I been foul mouthed!
